I Thank My Lucky Stars
I thank my lucky stars
That I live in the land of the free.
Where those stars and stripes
Represent what we all can be.
When on Thanksgiving I watch the parade
I recall our forefathers a wise decision made.
I thank my lucky stars
For the Constitution they wrote,
Where our freedoms are listed
Our rights protected with more than hope.
Through the original articles and added amendments
Our nation could remain strong.
They formed the basis of our laws
Over 200 plus years long.
This living document our forefathers foresaw
Could survive dissention and foreign wars,
Presidential assassinations, and civil rights unrest.
With flying colors the Constitution passed the legal test.
I thank my lucky stars
For more than turkey or pie
To live in a country whose charter
Aimed and remains so high.
