American Jesus
I don't need to be a global citizen'Cause I'm blessed by nationalityI'm a member of a growing populaceWe enforce our popularity
There are things that seem to pull us under andThere are things that drag us downBut there's a power and a vital presenceIt's lurking all around
We've got the American JesusSee him on the interstateWe've got the American JesusHe helped build the president's estate
I feel sorry for the earth's population'Cause so few live in the USAAt least the foreigners can copy our moralityThey can visit but they cannot stay
Only precious few can garner our prosperityIt makes us walk with renewed confidenceWe got a place to go when we dieAnd the architect resides right here
We've got the American JesusBolstering national faithWe've got the American JesusOverwhelming millions every day
He's the farmer's barren fields, the force the army wieldsExpressions on the faces of the starving millionsThe power of the man, the fuel that drives the klanHe's the motive and the conscience of the murderer
He's the preacher on TV, the false sincerityThe form letter that's written by the big computersThe nuclear bombs, the kids with no momsAnd I'm fearful that he's inside me
We've got the American JesusSee him on the interstateWe've got the American JesusExercising his authority
We've got the American JesusBolstering national faithWe've got the American JesusOverwhelming millions every day
One nation, under GodOne nation, under GodOne nation, under GodOne nation, under God
