Overlooking Freedom
It's a symbol that has stood for a liberating force
It's message can be seen from all around.
When we see its stars and stripes, picture men who gave their lives
To sustain the right for all to be made free.
We're overlooking freedom when we overlooking the flag.
Overlooking blessings today and in the past.
Overlooking everything that made this country grand
And we're overlooking freedom when we overlook the flag.
It's a symbol that still stands for a life giving cause
Salvation through the Christ of Calvary.
And with the stars and stripes, His death to bring us life
And resurrection He became the victory.
And we're overlooking freedom when we overlook the cross
Overlooking precious blood shed for all the lost.
Overcoming death, He has made the final cost.
And we're overlooking Jesus when we overlook the cross.
All that have fought a greater battle (He overtook our sins)
No cost could ever harm the edge
No great could stop His fight for freedom
and gift to every man.
And we're overlooking freedom when we overlook the cross
Overlooking precious blood shed for all the lost.
Overcoming death, He has made the final cost.
And we're overlooking Jesus when we overlook the cross.
And we're overlooking Jesus when we overlook the cross.
