Verse 1

Give me something to believe in
Give me something I can trust
Give me more than just a feeling
Give me something when my hopes gone
I’m holding on to You

Verse 2

Give me more than picket fences
And a house beneath the stars
Something rust can’t hold to ransom
Something I can give my whole heart
I’m holding on to You

Chorus 1

Empires of flags
They rise and they fall
But You sit above
And beyond all I know
Oh say can You see
I know You’re more
Than an American Dream

Verse 3

Give me something to believe in
Give me something I can trust
I need mercy like a river
I need justice like a flood
God I’m holding on to You

Chorus 2

Parties have lines
They claim You can’t cross
But You sit above
And beyond all the stars
Oh say can You see
I know You’re more
Than an American Dream

Bridge

Freedom comes and freedom goes
But who You free is free for sure
Until You come and make it right
We’ll sing it out into the night

Chorus 3

Empires of flags
They rise and they fall
But Yours is the Kingdom
They can’t overthrow
Oh say can You see
I know you’re better than
You’re higher than
You’re more than an American Dream
