O America

Brendan Graham (who wrote “You Raise Me Up”) heard William Joseph perform in Los Angeles, and after hearing "Sweet Remembrance Of You" he was so inspired that he wanted to add lyrics. Now William and Brendan have created the beautiful anthem “O, America” and the Irish supergroup Celtic Woman have adopted it as their own! They have sung it every night on their American tour, and their adoring fans have rewarded the song with a standing ovation every night. This song was released to the world on June 23, 2009.
This website displays the beautiful lyrics:
>>O America!<<  It is a beautiful song.
Let's pray for our true Allies and thank God for them every day.
Let's pray for the revival of true American Patriotism.
Let's pray for God's mercy for America.
Let's pray for our family, friends and neighbors... that they would all know the joy of the salvation of Jesus Christ and true freedom.
