Our Lady of Liberty
You hold the light–the beacon to our nation
The opportunity for us all to shine forth
To share your promise with others
Through love and friendship
Through understanding and inclusion
You encourage us to stand:
On our windswept shores
Or our warm sandy beaches
On our crowded city streets
Or our quiet back porches
And say,
“Come, join us in our land.
A land of liberty, opportunity and kindness.
A land where you may find refuge
And a chance to be free.”
