As a Muslim in America. I thank God that He made me end up in this country where I am free to practice my religion and be who I want. I filed for my citizenship today, but I always felt as American as anyone throughout my life. I thank God I would soon be able to call myself an American. May God bless the USA, the land of the free. And that may it always be.
You ARE already an American my brother ! You don’t need a piece of paper to be an American....you love this country , what it stands for , and what it tries to be and you want to be a part of it ! That’s what makes you an American not passing some test or a piece of paper . Welcome brother so glad you’re here - we need more people like you and less haters who want to tear it down 👍🏻😎
Which God do you pray to? If you love America make sure you don't bring your $#ithole ideas and fight along for what is right in gods eyes
@@bgebig it's okay if he wants to become an American but by becoming American he must fight along with all other Americans who love this country...not like the Muslims that come to greatest country in the world and try to impose their beliefs on to us
Welcome fellow American!!
@@crystala554 I'm more worried about who you pray to. You're the only jackass I see posting here.
Gordon, welcome to the USA!
Maybe the shrill, vocal, America-haters we see on TV are a tiny minority that yell the loudest and the REAL AMERICANS are all of you guys and gals commenting, here, and giving thumbs ups, here. I believe in America, and I believe we can heal this land again, by God's grace and with His help! God Bless the USA!
Not only do I think that this song is awesome and I believe the words but I love your comment God bless you
Don't confuse criticism of America with hating America. I love this country. I criticize it all the time because I want it to be the best it can be.
That was an excellent example. Kudos to you. ❤️🇺🇸❤️
Absolutely right. Silent majority
David Carr, Amen!
Our country in it's current state needs to hear this song again
Amen, I agree!
They need to hear it everyday so they don't forget. But the president we have will probably ban it
@@sandramulholland9975 Unlike Comrade Trump the Traitor who wants to take revenge on political opponents, who refused to honor our fallen heroes at Normandy because of the weather (drizzle and a light rain), who called POWs "losers", who called the KKK, Neo-Nazis and white supremacists "fine people", who mocks the disabled, who advocates sexual assault by "grabbing pu**y" along with many other verbal assaults and actions that are not compatible with the presidency;.
@@sandramulholland9975 whitch will be lame
As a Navy vet, when I got out the military was not appreciated, bad memories. Today I’m the guy that sits in the back of a restaurant and picks up the tab for someone in uniform, military, police, fireman or other first responder so they always know there is someone that cares and respects what they do. I don’t know how many times I’ve listened to Lee or this specific vid, the tears flow every time. This is why I served, this is why all my brothers and sisters serve or have served. As has been said before, all gave some, some gave all. God bless the USA and God Bless Lee Greenwood and the other singers in this vid. Nuff said.
I appreciate you Shipmate. USN 1983-1990. Thank you for serving Brother.
I'm thankful for all who serve or have served. Three of my brothers and my husband served in Vietnam. When they returned home they had to enter from a place other than the main airport waiting room because people were spitting on returning service men. Dicuuss

@@mariesuzor6511 And sadly the children of those Military/US Haters grew up and many are in positions of power today. Anyone who has ever criticized the Service people should never be allowed near the control panel. Criticise the Elected if you will but the Brave people in uniform must do what they are ordered. Not their choice or fault. Never criticise them.
As a Mom of a son who served in the Navy, a Marine grandson and one in the Guard I thank you for your service from the bottom of my heart and continuing to look after fellow service members.
Thank you for your service fellow shipmate, and fellow brother. USN 2019-2024
I was legal Immigrant now I am proud to be an American.God bless The U.S.A!
Welcome 🤗🇺🇸
Awesome 😊
As is my wife.
Same!! Love America!!
Kearstin Knotts thank you
This could be easily made America's Second National Anthem.
BEAUTIFUL!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
Already the unofficial one lol.
Lee Greenwood wrote it, he would disagree, when we talked he called it his "little song" that he was very proud of and couldn't believe how much it moved everyone ... that was like 30 years ago (we were both young back then)
The grown hard core MEN that cried openly when he sang it for us moved him very much, but he called it his little (special) song because he had Hits on Radio and it was just us Military folks that just loved this song so much and he Loved us Military folks, he followed us around... I actually saw him 3 times (only spoke with him once)
Look at the History of this song, it has been around for a Long Time
Boomer1941 noname , it should be our first !
No one would take a knee, that's for sure!!!
🇺🇸 America. I will fight for my country everyday.
I've been here since i was 4 years old. I married, had 4 kids, got my master's, all my kids got their education complete all with dedication, hard work and FAITH...oh and may I tell you who I am? Born in South America, hispanic in color n features AND NEVER FELT DISCRIMINATED!!! AND YES VERY GRATEFUL N PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN 🙏🙏🙏❌️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❌️🙏
Thanks everyone for watching God Bless The U.S.A. We're so happy with how this turned out. Have a wonderful 4th of July weekend and have fun celebrating our Independence Day! Appreciate you and hope you're staying healthy and safe!
I am going to play this the loudest this weekend while watching fireworks!
It is phenomenal Rob :) Hope this goes viral. I'm sharing now. Have a Happy and safe Fouth of July. You know July 4th is Saturday in the Park ;) (Us Chicago fans know that well)
thanks for making such a wonderful art! stay healthy too for you and your family🙌🏻
Thanks man! Keep singing, it's a huge inspiration!
36 years later it is still a powerful, moving song. What you all did with it ranks up there with Ray Charles' rendition of America the Beautiful for me, thank you.
The balls on everyone in this video to be seen singing such an unapologetically-patriotic sentiment at a time like this! God bless America, and god bless everyone in this video.
Agreed! And to see how many views it is getting between HF's, Lee Greenwood's, and The US Air Force Band's facebook pages and youtube channels gives me hope!
God bless America!!!!!!
AMEN!
So agree. What a great group.
Amen
All I can say is that, besides being a Christian, being an American is the greatest blessing of my life. Yes, our nation is in the process of losing her way, but her citizens will protect their families and fight to the death to defend our way of life. Thank you, Lee, for this amazing new arrangement and the voices of our service people. It is AWESOME!!!!! Such a treat to hear those tight harmonies. God bless you and God bless these United States of America.
Remember: Freedom is never free.
I'm a German living in Canada. Deep inside my heart, I am American and if I ever get the chance, I will move south. My lovely United States of America, god bless you, your people and your military. I stand proud to the flag and I kneel to the cross !!!!!!! God bless America !
You are welcome to move south if you want :) I live in Minnesota and there's a lot of similarities between us and Canada I think, but I'm happy to be an American. My nationality is also half German as you probably guess by the last name.
Awesome brother
Move to Wisconsin. We have a lot of Germans moving here and we welcome everyone. God bless you and the USA 🇺🇸
@KS-xs7fs - We actually want immigrants like you! You would be welcome anytime!
I Pledge Allegiance to the flag
of the United States of America
and to the Republic
for which it stands,
one Nation under God,
indivisible,
with liberty and justice for all.
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Amen brother!!
Amen!
Amen to that
That's it right there
It’s time for the “Silent Majority” to STAND UP!🙌🏼
Who’s car we taking?
Our time will.come soon 🇺🇸

“If you can read this thank a Teacher. If you’re reading this in English thank a Soldier.”
Please Father, in Your Name, "God Bless the USA ".
Every Dam Time!! I can't stop the tears as my heart swells with pride when I hear this song. Being a former Army member (female), this just hits THAT chord. Proud to have served, and wish I could again. I am now 70, but feel that fight in me is still itching to go to it. God bless to all.
Thank you for your service. God bless you.
Thank you for your service.
I cried all 6 times I listened to it and it's always made me cry, just like our national anthem.
Thank you for your service.
Thanks for your service!!
OMG, even i'm not American, i got hard ghoosebump while watch this. What a beautiful
I agree! I’m a thankful naturalized US citizen :)
If you love freedom and what we represent, you are an American in spirit. I hope you can be one someday
Moi aussi my friend.
@@Cholita.1979 I'm glad you're home :-)
me too!
I love this song!! I am Native American. My Grandfather, Father, Husband & Son have all defended our country!! The line goes back further, but I didn't. Native Men have always fought for our home so this song means so much to me!!
Hello Denise Welder, how are you doing today?
It's a shame so many of your people want to separate themselves from the US and live in their own private land areas. 400 years ago they embraced the new society Europeans brought with them for the most part, but modern propaganda has made them want to go backwards.
beautiful thoughts
Not many of us left and we still run into battle to protect. No fear from TM.
I'm proud to be an American, and this song makes me prouder. I salute all the brave veterans who gave their lives for this country. God bless the United States of America!!!!!!!!!
god bless you my friend... i did my 20 years.
After listening to this song, my only regret is being able upvote this song only once...
Lucky CZcams/Google accounts are easy to make!!!
Everytime I Hear This Song It Makes Me So Proud To Be In America And Sad At The Same Time Because A lot Of People Are Just Bashing It. Why Don't They Leave If They Hate America. Pray For Peace And Unity For Our Country. God Is In Control.🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
It’s time we stand and say “I’m proud to be an American”
Not me. All Countries Matter.
Solarbot They do, but you can still be proud of your country.
Absloutely!
@@solarbot6099 Is this a joke? Or did people just not care? Because I'm one of the people that just don't care.
Yes.
Growing up dirt poor, enlisting in the Marines, to my life now…I can hardly get through this song without shedding a few tears. 🦅 🌎 ⚓️🇺🇸
Wherever the spirit of the Lord dwells, there is freedom 🇺🇸
Let me tell you about the first time that I heard the song, “God Bless the USA.”
I was deployed to the Mediterranean Sea aboard USS Saratoga. It was already a memorable deployment. We had been involved in a miniature “war at sea” with the Libyan Navy. We won, BTW - sank two Libyan vessels and blew up a shore-based missile site. AND in a separate event, we had tracked an airliner carrying the escaping terrorists who had captured a cruise ship and killed an American citizen, and we forced the plane to land at a joint US-Italian military base in Sicily where the terrorists were taken into custody.
Right in the middle of all of that, the USO sent a team of entertainers to visit us and raise morale. One of the songs they sang as, “God Bless the USA.” We had been out of the country for months, and had never heard the song before. Right there, 5,000 battle hardened sailors and marines wept openly. I will never forget the emotions.
Since then, that song has always been special to me. And now, Lee Greenwood, Home Free, and the Singing Sergeants have recorded a new version. Once again, I have seen that my eyes are not water-tight - they leak.
Thank you for your service and your wonderful story.
Thank you for your service, we are indebted to people like you! This is one young American who understands and respects the flag and our country
Thanks
Thank you for your service man. Love you from one American to another
Thank you for your service sir!
This was fun boys!! Let’s do it again!
You have a beautiful voice. Thank you for your service. Have a happy, safe 4th!
Thank you for your service! And I would love to hear you sing with them again! :-D Proud Air Force wife and mom, here.
Thank you so much for everything you do!! Hooah!!!
HERE is The REAL MESSIAH, Who they REALLY Crucified for the sins of man
From the Dead Sea Scrolls Exodus 3 Scroll, "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote
Paleo Hebrew Direct Translation
Yad "Hand"
He "Breath"
Vav "Nail"
He "Breath"
YaH's Name:
(Ya)d + (H)e, as YaH is what Moses called Him as well all throughout the Book of Isaiah and Psalms, "this is My Name for all generations" (Exodus 3)
YaH The Creator:
Yad He, (Hand Breath), as YaH's "Hand" Formed man from the dust of the Earth and His "Breath" made him a living being (Adam)
YaH's Sacrifice of Crucifixion:
Vav He (Nail Breath), the "Nail" through the "Hand", that whosoever shall call YaH Savior, His Breath brings forth life (Salvation)
How YaH arrives:
YaH arrives via the Tent of Meeting (Exodus 33:7:11), NOT through childbirth (Isaiah 45:10)
Why they demanded YaH to be Crucified:
YaH was Crucified according to Hebrew law (Deuteronomy 21), to be Hung on an Almond Tree for BLASPHEMY, as the Messiah claimed He was YaH.
He was YaH
Bible verses of YaH
Isaiah 42:8
"I am YaH; that is my Name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.
Isaiah 43:11
I, I am YAH, and there is no other Savior but Me.
Isaiah 45:5
I am YaH, and there is NONE ELSE.

I remember hearing this song while going through boot camp. I stood tall with pride when it was played. Loved it then , love it even more now. God Bless the USA
Me too...boo hooing, through the whole song. They played it for us on the 4th of July during Naval boot camp in Orlando, FL.
Thank you for your service
@@gnuineangel Me three. Naval Boot camp in Orlando, FL back in 1989
Thank you for your service. I am just discovering Home Free. I love them. Again, thank you for your service.
@@Mike84501 you are very kind. Thank you. I love home free . God Bless
I am a Navy veteran. My dad was in Vietnam. Saluting my Father
We played this at my husbands funeral. He was a police officer who would have gladly laid down his life for any American. He loved this song and this country and all it stood for. Beautiful arrangement
So sorry for the loss of your husband. I appreciate his service.
Amen.
God bless you!! He was a hero!! Thank you!! So sorry for your loss as well ❤️
I’m sorry for your loss Ma’am. He sounds like a good man. May God bless you and your family.
Thank you and your husband’s service to this country.
Who are the communists who gave this a thumbs down? This was just beautiful.
They are democrats
The rioters
AMEN TO THAT.....it was BEAUTIFUL! This and these people are what America stands for.....God Bless the USA....God Bless ALL AMERICANS!
Thank you... I was thinking the EXACT thing
It is a beatiful song dont worry about the communists
Who hate us there will always be people like you and I and there are more of us who stand and Love Freedom so yes God Bless America and everyone who stands for freedom
It is not only for the US but for each country. "I won't forget the men who died and gave that right to me. And I gladly stand up next to you to defend her( the country) still today." Every time I listen to this song, I cannot help weeping with deep respect for the people who lived and died for their own countries. If everyone realizes and appreciates that the society we live in now is what these people have established taking risks and effort, and if everyone can be humble, each society might be better.
I will never get tired of hearing this rendition. Truly stellar. Lee can still bring it, and the Singing Sergeants were tremendous. I'm not surprised that pretty much everyone is happy to work with Home Free!
I'm a Vietnamese American. I have always loved the U.S.A since I was little through my dad's stories about Americans he worked with. I got married & immigrated to the States nearly 12 years ago. Every single time since the first time I heard this song on my naturalization ceremony, I cried. I feel deeply thankful & lucky to be living here. I teach my children who were born here to love this country & work hard to protect & build it up. Also, I told them to put an American flag sticker on my urs after I died. I told them to remember to display American flags in front of their house when they grew up & remember how much I loved this country when I was alive & above all these: feel proud to be Americans!
Thankyoulifeformany Things 💝💝💝
We have some wonderful friends from Veatnam who are very good friends. One is a citizen now. Soon Dae will be also. I am proud to call them not only friends but family. This is what this country is about. God bless this land!
America loves you right back, Thankyoulifeformany Things
your story is very sweet, and touches my heart. I hope you have a nice long life, with many years still ahead, spending many precious moments with all of your family!! And may you be blessed and know God's love.
The air men can sing 🤢
To those that gave this a thumbs down, I believe there’s a plane leaving to other countries right now. Trust me, you won’t be missed.
God Bless the USA !!!
Well said Patriot
God bless the USA!
I love this country! Am thankful I was born here! I also see the “thumbs down”. For those that feel that way, use your freedom and leave. We’d all appreciate it.
I couldn't have said it any better!
"like it or leave it" is the slogan of a quitter.
i love this country, thats why i want it change the direction of hate and control its going down. i wont leave this place, i will fix it. if you dont like that then you can leave.
I am a Canadian, but a true follower of the Home Free group. This is so heartwarming, it makes me cry every time I hear it. Sooo beautiful! Beyond patriotic!
We love Canadians!!!!
My big brother was a military man and fought in Iraq. He was extremely patriotic as am I. So proud of him and so many others who have and ARE serving this country. I have loved this song since it was first released. Always makes me think of my brother and have to listen to it at least twice when it comes up. This rendition is outstanding💗💗💗
I have ALWAYS thanked our military men & women!! In fact, I tend to show my appreciation by going up to them and PERSONALLY tell them how much I appreciate them serving. The sad part about it is they CONSTANTLY tell me NO ONE EVER THANKS THEM.
Once when I was in a restaurant, I saw an WWII (World War II) vet in uniform. I told his waitress I would pay for his meal as well. She was sworn to secrecy, wasn't allowed to tell him ANYTHING. Since his table was near mine, I actually got to see the whole thing unfold before my eyes!!!! It was WONDERFUL!!!!
So, anyone reading this, P-L-E-A-S-E remember to thank our military men & women, past - present - & future!!!! Without them, we wouldn't be free!!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇲
My dad had served in the Navy & a brother of mine in the Army.
I'm usually a "the original is always better" kind of guy, but man... you guys (as usual) knocked this one out of the park. 🇺🇸
Agreed!
Me too.... I'm crying.. it's beautiful!
Right?!! Well done indeed.
So agree👆🏼such amazing harmony & to be able to do it together,Wow!!! But looking at ur tour journey,where’s Tx on ur list🤷🏽♀️we’d love to have y’all come to Lubbock or Odessa🙋🏽♀️
@@CoffeyNinja I just listened to this again and I got through it, but I was crying by the end of it the first time. And, Sean, I'm usually the same as you about original vs remake, but this was definitely a knock out of the park!
This needs to be played on loud speakers every time a riot breaks out
Yes!
You bet! It’s time!
I agree 100%
Amen indeed!!!!
I feel like that would be more effective than riot police, ngl. They seriously should try it!
I am Filipino 🇵🇭 and I loved this country so much and I thankgod for allowing me to work and lived here 🇺🇸 GOD BLESS THE USA 🙏🇺🇸🙏
As a Vietnamese refugee, I am deeply grateful to America for welcoming me and granting me the precious gift of freedom. I am committed to defending and standing alongside this great nation, ready to fight for its ideals and values. ❤
We may not be a perfect country, and we never will be. But it’s things like this that fill with emotion and hope that we can grow to be better
That is why we keep and remember America's monuments, statues, and history, to learn from it and do not make the same mistakes, as all nations and peoples have made mistakes, for "all" (men/woman who have governed like the rest of us) are sinners and fall short of the grace of God.
@@ssoldie5490 Amen to that sentiment. We need to learn from past mistakes and move on to make the world a better place. Happy July 4. Be well and stay safe.
This is the kind of constructive commentary everyone needs to hear. It goes too far to say that the US is terrible, and equally far to say it is perfect or the greatest country ever. But it is a great country and would be nothing if not for the sacrifice of millions. God Bless
You've said it very well. Sadly, a lot of people would rather give up than do the hard work to be better. God bless and stay safe.
I Morgan Grey do solemnly swear to Defend the Constitution of the United States of America from all Enemies,Foreign or Domestic....that didn't stop when i retired from the US Navy.
Thank you Morgan for your service to our great country !!! You Rock !!!
As Trump will say to you: Thank you for serving America.
😘😘😘
Thank you Morgan for your service
Thank you Sir for your service and Brave Patriotism. You are a Hero.
Im not an American but everytime I hear this song it give me chills. God bless everyone reading this
same here
As an American, thank you.
I was not born in the US while I lived several years there. Back in the nineties this song would made me cry. It still does. You should be proud to be part of the free world. Not everyone is equally lucky
i'm not american by birth but when i heard the song i felt chills and goosebumps and felt patriotic thank you for sharing this with us guys.
In 1951 at the age of 5 my family left Nairobi, Kenya due to the mass slaughtering of civilians during the Mau-Mau uprisings. We left for this unknown land of America.
I thank God every day for becoming a proud American. This song is a tribute to all who love freedom and captures my feelings so completely, leaving me with chills and tears of pride..
Thank You Lee, Thank you Air Force choir, Thank You Rob and crew and all who participated in this extraordinary work.
PLEASE GOD preserve this extraordinary Country in yet another survival test; for our children, grandchildren and those yet to come.
So glad you’re here! God bless you and your family🇺🇸
This is his Son and proud of his dad and this country!
John Jacob Jingleheimer-Schmidt all immigrants that came to the US legal or illegally, young or old rich or poor love this country other wise they wouldn't have risked there lives, left there families & community to start over in the land of opportunity to better themselves.
Amen....could not have put it better....:)
@@or2130 If only that were true. We have many immigrants, legal and illegal, who burn or spit on our flag. Some are here just to destroy our country. They take advantage of the great freedoms they have here, to behave like the derelicts they are. I would vote for a law that says any immigrant who drsecrates the flag or disrespects the national anthem, should be deported within 24 hours.
I'm blasting this song on the 4th of July why bc I'm a proud American and this song is absolutely incredible ❤️
Kelsey Hackmann I am a Canadian, but I wish you a great fourth of July and I love the song. I will play it for my American friends.
Great.......
@@wolfhound1452 I will also - this brings tears to my eyes. Happy July 4 to the folks to the south of us. Be well and stay safe.
USA
Just love this song this version was beautiful
WOW! This new rendition is on repeat whenever I listen to it. I'm a proud military parent. My son graduated from the Air Force Academy (Colorado Springs, CO) a couple of years ago. Early this year he graduated with a Masters degree from San Diego under the Air Force and recently received his orders.
He and his wife and their 7 month baby (my granddaughter Talitha) will be moving to Italy where he will be stationed for the next 4-5 years.
We will miss them terribly. But I'm extremely proud that he's chosen this path to serve our country.
Although, I moved to the US when I was 13 y/o, from American Samoa (US Territory), I've always been a proud American.
I resent and would not tolerate those who bad mouth our country and its leaders. I'm certain no leader is PERFECT, but that's not a reason to condemn anyone and especially our military.
We are a POWERFUL NATION for a reason. Our FREEDOM needs to be protected at all times. Our FREEDOM is the envy of the world and they'll do anything to tear it down. God has blessed our NATION and its people!!
The first time I heard this song was over in England when my husband was stationed there for a second time. Any time someone had a party - even when I had one for my AVON team at the local Football Club - only a few were American, but we invited friends from base as it was Christmas time - w played this song. We used to joke that it was the unofficial Air Force song. Then…. a few years later while in Germany, my husband wound up in the Desert for Desert Shield & Desert Storm. Again, this was one of the most played songs on the Armed Forces Network. There were a number of great songs put out by Country Musicians! Our kids grew up listening to these songs and even now - all are in their 40’s - they are like me and get goosebumps whenever we hear this one. Yes…. I always tear up - I can’t help it because it truly is one of the most patriotic songs (like our Anthem) and because I always get to remembering the great times in England and the scary time in Germany. Hard to believe it was so long ago! I was a young mother in England and am now a proud grandmother living in FL - grandkids all live in NC, so they appreciate the Country music, too (along with their other music - we all like variety). Beautiful rendition! J
Home Free sounds great as usual and so did the military persons singing but give a shout out to 77 y/o Lee Greenwood..still has the pipes!!!
He was wailing on this song......
He has said he enjoyed being able to play with this song like he has never been able to before.
I don't see how anyone could give this performance a thumbs down. :(
Wtf he's 77 😱😱😱😱😮😮😮
AMAZING!!! AMAZING!!!AMAZING!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏 Thank you!!!
God bless the United States 🇺🇸 of America .
God bless our president troops and service workers .
As a legal immigrant to this country, who became a citizen, this song still makes me weep so many times when I listen to it. I am proud to be an American!
I will NEVER tire of hearing this!!!! I’ve shared this on so many platforms and in the past 2 years there are almost NO views anymore - I don’t think the platforms are allowing it to be heard! This is sad - I KNOW this could reach so many! Such strength and beauty at the heart of what America is and what we stand for is STILL out there!
I just found this & I’m going to share it on Gettr and Truth Social. It’s Dec 2022.
The like button isn’t enough to express my feelings for this. Thank God for the men and women who put themselves in harm’s way to give us the freedoms we enjoy. I was born in the USA, and I’ve spent years outside it. I will never take for granted the sacrifices that have been made for the beautiful country I call home. Home Free takes on multiple meanings in this video. Thank you, all of you!
Very well said. Thank you for posting that comment. 👍
As a Veteran of the US Army, seeing the USAF and Home Free helping Lee Greenwood re-imagine what is arguably the most patriotic song ever brings a tear to my eye at just how much I love the USA.
Thank you sir for your service USA USA Im proud of you keeping our country free and safe god bless you brother IGY6 dalton Georgia
I cannot thank you both enough.
I saw Lee perform this live when I was 16. Two years later I was at Ft. Leonardwood for the beginning of my service. As the song that drove my decision, this was an AWESOME tribute! So glad to have claimed my Home Fry status.
Thank you for your service, John!
Thank you for your service
I come back and listen to this often and it gives me chills and brings tears to my eyes every single time. God bless all of our service men and women, God bless Lee Greenwood for this iconic song, and God Bless The USA! 🇺🇸
Hello Jessica how are you doing
You are welcome! "God bless this country".... Lee Greenwood!
This song gives me the chills everytime I listen to it, love it!
More meaningful since I have a daughter in the Air Force.
I’m not even American and this song gives me chills. You feel the love for the country from the first note to the last. God bless the USA
Thank you Marian.
God bless you Marian ! 😘👍🏻😎
Same here!!!GOD BLESS USA!!!
Same here. I bet it’s because the love you have for your own country is universal.
Thank you! We may not be perfect. We're kinda having a family argument at the moment! But we will see through it. America is beautiful and we will never forget why we are free.
Just don’t understand how people can downvote this, must be complete anarchists
It's the liberals who are trying to defund the police
@@name3347 I'm a liberal, and I voted the song up. Take your divisive politics elsewhere. Besides, if you think Home Free is just for conservatives, y'all need to follow Tim Foust on Twitter. You would not be happy.
A lot of that going around.
I'm guessing the down votes come from purists who think any covers - even those that include/feature the original singer - are 'blasphemous'. Just a guess...
@@donnarowe8618 its not divisive politics, its reality in our times. Open ur eyes and use the brain god gave u
I'm an Aussie and absolutely love this song, it oozes Pride
Hello Tracy how are you doing
Love it. Love Lee Greenwoods passion for this song and the meaning it has to him personally. Love the Air Force singers, so beautiful and true. Lastly, that guy who aggressively beat-boxed it did a fantastic job.
Adam Rupp is the best beat-boxer ever!!
We need to stand up, arm and take back the country that this song was originally written for!!
AMEN!!!!! We all need to do our part! I Love this country, our military, our law enforcement, and our President! Let's come together and make America Great again!
Agreed!
I don't think you have any clue what you are saying. What is it you are suppose to take back?
@@aathanraan8819 You are obviously a moron if what I said needs explained to you.
@@aathanraan8819 Learn to write a sentence with proper English and grammar, troll.
I don't care who sings the song. This song brings chills down my spine, tears my eyes, and my heart swell to a greater love for America. I was in 3rd grade when devastation happened on 9/11, but I remember 9/12 when I saw normal Americans become Patriots regardless of race, religion, sex, or political alignment. Lee Greenwood loves America, Home Free loves America, and obviously the men and women of the who have beautiful voices of the Air Force love America.
God Bless America!
Phó Hằng Phú Sát - From one Vietnamese person to another, I think it depends on where the song is played and what it means to each individual person. I’m Vietnamese-American, and as an immigrant, I grew up believing in this song. I felt a connection with the lyrics that is probably deeper than I can describe in a CZcams comment. When it’s sung in certain settings, I agree that it can indeed come across the way you describe, and that’s dismaying. I understand that feeling, but when the song is sung for the right reasons, in the right places, by the right group of people, I find it to be incredibly moving, uplifting, inspiring, and unifying. This particular rendition, at this point in time, touches me. But not everyone has to feel that way.
I was in 2nd grade. Never forget

Yes buddy, you said it, "GOD Bless America Again" God and only God can HEAL the world from the virus if we would only let him. I know most people don't want God to do anything. Even with the racist, I am not like that way but, God made people like you and me, only some of us have different skin color. But the inside of us all, we have a heart that is basically the same, our color of blood is the exact same color, RED. We all have same kind of bones, we hurt the same. We breathe and speak with our voices like the same. We all put on our pants the same way, one leg at a time. Basically, what I'm saying is we are no different than any one else in this world. We get born, and then we die, sooner than others but we all die. Then WE ALL WILL STAND alone before GOD and be JUDGED. Now rather other people may believe the same way I do, if they don't that's on them. I won't think of them any different than myself. We all have the right to believe what we want to believe. I didn't mean to go on as long as I did, and for that I am sorry. But I myself Love America and will always love America. I am ashamed of what we have become, but if we all work together, America can be great again, with God's help.
In today's America we truly need to remember this ❤️🇺🇸
Hello Crystal Regan, how are you doing?
God bless the USA is probably one of the best songs that has ever been sung about American heroes. Lee Greenwood brought this song to life and to the hearts of Americans.
To all soldiers Marines, Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard and all others that have proudly given their time sacrifice and sometimes life for this country we should all be proud.
I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow!! Peter 👍👍👍👍👍
Same here. Sends chills down your spine. I can't watch this without getting teary. Very thankful to be born here, and very thankful to support those who defend so we can continue to enjoy the freedoms we have.
Yes you do, why: this is so powerful: timestamp 2:30, replay broken.
Beautifully done!
Amen
Never forget the men, women, and children who lost their lives.

Happy 4th of July y'all! I'm proud to be an American and proud I served the United States Navy I wouldn't have it any other way! Who's listening to this in 2024! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Showing my age here. But I remember when this song hit the radio for the first time. I was a little girl playing on the porch when I heard this song. Loved it then, Love it always!! This mix though is so very special. Thank you all for singing the most patriotic song to me that is out there!!!
Every American should feel pride in their hearts for being able to live in such a beautiful country after hearing this song. Millions have suffered and died so that US citizens can live freely. A song like this makes us remember where our country came from, let us never forget it. We need to bring our country UP instead of tearing it DOWN. Honor and respect our beautiful flag like none other. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

Exactly. Somehow, we have failed to pass along the love of our country, the United States of America, to our children. 🥺 It's so sad. 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🇺🇸
I’m from New Zealand 🇳🇿 but this song alone tells me how much you love your country

Thank you sincerely 🙏🙏🙏
Happy 4th of July. Happy REAL un-woke AMERICAN PRIDE MONTH 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
💥🎇🎆🗽🗽🗽🗽🗽🗽❤️
You're not a true American patriot if this song doesn't bring tears to your eyes !!!!!!
Lee Greenwood is a legend. And Home Free is growing into legends.
À
Both Lee Greenwood and Home Free have a legendary sound and deserve the title of 'Legend"!
Amen.
Im pretty sure they already are.
And our Air Force they all had fun making this.
If you don't love America, I will give you some money to leave, but don't come back !! I love America and this is God's 🙏 country!!!
Amen!
Yes . Let's make a caravan that goes south this time !
Actually, according to the bible, Israel is gods nation, not America. Also, America is the first secular nation. No religion had a hand in its founding.
Amen 🙏🏻
Aathan Raan actually Christianity and Catholicism did, read some US history.
God Bless all that are hearing this song. Love all Americans that gave their lives so that we as Americans can be free. Thank men and women of the services. God Bless you and your families.
Don't ever forget who these wonderful humans are ad thank you Mr. Greenwood for such a memorable song!!
Look folks, I'm a Canadian, and a mighty proud one at that. But this song just gives me shivers - the good kind! It's framming inspiring!
I'm in BC, and things are going pretty good here comparatively, as far as COVID-19 goes. I know you folks to the south of us (and elsewhere in the world, of course) are facing much worse times in many areas. I do pray for my own country, but I want you to know that I also pray for yours. For your health and strength and peace. For God to bless you all. Because we are all human and we are all loved and we are all worthy and special and cherished. God bless the USA. God bless Canada. God bless the world. With health and strength and unity. Amen.
Amen Sister, Always love our Canadian brothers and sisters. May we all find our way through this and every challenge that we face and may we always do it together. Nice words. Be safe.
Thank you! Now can Canadian's call us Baja Canada, and not the Crackhead Downstairs neighbor? I have an awfully dark sense of humor.
I pray that you are blessed richly for your devotion to others and thank you for your prayers!!! 👊
Amen from Alberta.
Wishing our American brothers a happy Independence Day when it comes, from Scotland!
💜💜
Thanks :) I appreciate it from the state of Louisiana
my husband has been a piper for over 65 yrs and we are both proud of the Scottish blood (with many others) that run thru our veins - we are Americans after all. Thanks for the Birthday wishes.
To me this song it's right under the star spangled banner... Thank you Lee Love ya I❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸 what a beautiful arrangement
I know our country has fallen in some aspects from what it used to be, but that's only more reason to keep on believing and fighting for what's right. I'm a proud American to the end 🇺🇸
I can't help but shed a tear everytime I hear this song
Glad I’m not the only one🇺🇸
So do I.
God bless America
Love and light from Japan.
Right?
I’m so happy today. BIDEN/HARRIS 🇺🇸
@@triciaaustin90 I’m so happy that you could say that without being censored.🇺🇸
I remember when Lee Greenwood first released this song. As the wife, daughter, sister, daughter-in-law, sister-in-law of multiple veterans this song still sends chills down my back.
Just watching this video made me a bit teary-eyed. I haven't served, but watching them sing so amazing and in uniform made it even more emotional
Same feeling, I was born in Cuba and I have only one country I love: America!!!
As Donald Trump will say to you, thank you for serving America because you are a fighter for us.
Such a Beautiful Song
sat in a military club in hawaii with seaman, airmen, marines, army and cost guard all were standing belting out this song with Lee Greenwood and all had tears in their eyes profound unity and pride in this country and our part in defending it then and now.
This performance gives me goosebumps every time man.
I am from Germany and I was never interested in America or American Culture, but I started listening to Home Free about a week ago and have since then obsessively listened to all their music and watched all their videos and now I feel like I want to move to America and become a Country Girl. I guess we all have a Hillbilly Bone down deep inside. And now this song made me tear up, when I couldn't have cared less about America a month ago and it shows how deeply you care for your country
Not me! I'd never want to live in America! That place is a wreck!
Come on down Elena/. Would welcome you.
Bless you and know there are people that love you and Germany here to! 😘🤗 and the language of Deutsche is beautiful I love to hear you all say the word pencil !!
And like Mike said you're welcome anytime come on down.
Come on over! We have no healthcare, no one cares about each other, we all hate each other because of masks and politics, the Supreme Court just officially endorsed a religion, trampling our first amendment rights, but yea, it’s a fuckin RIOT over here 🤣✌️🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@ifyouwantoreplyjustclickth5063 i rather live in america its better than our shit Small countrys just saying
The "soul" of the American man is something so big that words cannot describe it. Our family did not become immigrants, but God wanted to lead us to walk in His path. Now I see the great sacrifices that the US has made and that we in Finland now have to make because of our neighboring country. As allies, we must overcome that empire of lies (and first help Ukraine to survive.) In Finland and the USA, we have the freedom to live and express our opinions. This we will preserve, as the founding fathers of the USA stated in their Declaration. Most of our presidents have also had similar ideals and so do I. Finland is ready to defend freedom. It has been ready to fight an aggressor for 50 years - now supplemented not only by our own weapons but also by weapons sold by the US (and Israel). GOd BLESS THE U.S.A AND FINLAND (OUR "LITTLE AMERICA")❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤝🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🙏
As a legal immigrant who LOVES THIS COUNTRY and an American through and through, this is one of the best songs my ears have ever heard. Deserves to be trending and millions of views.
Can’t listen to this song with tears streaming down my face. This is my fifth time listening to this song. I am so fortunate to live in this great nation. It’s a shame those who denigrate this country do not understand how much freedom we have here. Just live in another country, especially a third world country, and see how you appreciate their freedoms or lack of. Folks, don’t take this country for granted.
We need more people like you. It does not matter what your background is. What race you are, what religion you practice, what your cultural background is. If you love this country, support our constitution, cherish our freedom, embrace our history, support out troops and our police, you are welcome with open arms.
Ashley, God bless and be with you!
Thanks all! I never take for granted what this country provides for each person, freedom. Yes, it’s tumultuous now but I’d still rather be here than any place else. God Bless all of you! Much love and peace in your lives!
While you are correct that the USA has freedom I wouldn't say that the USA is the nation you make it out to be. There is something between black and white. There are, in lots of aspects, much better nations to live in. The USA is by no means perfect and has many many many flaws. This goes for all nations of course.
A few examples of why I rather want to live in my own country than in the USA
- It's very easy to get fired and lose your job in the USA
Over here there are rules and policies which will protect employees against layoffs. It's still possible to get laid off. But your boss will need to have a very good reason to do so.
- healthcare is very expensive in the USA.
In my country pretty much all hospital care gets paid for by insurance companies. By law, every citizen over here is required to have such an insurance. Depending on your income, the government will partially refund you the costs of the insurance.
- republican vs democrats silliness
In my country, we have learned to talk with each other and come to agreements that are carried by a majority consisting of multiple parties. This means we won't see the silly things as often which the USA is seeing when the majority switches between republican and democrats. When we choose to do something, the next government won't revert the whole thing with a few pencil strokes because back when the law was made there were enough people in favor for it.
- police brutality
Sorry but you guys have a long way to go. From what I have seen though there are some good things happening
- gap between the poor and the rich
While the USA offers a lot of opportunities. The poverty that the USA has is heartbreaking when compared to several other western countries. In my country there obviously is a lot of poverty too. But not as extreme as in the USA. Also over here, there is much more care possible for when you are poor.
- politicly biased media
In my country, the media aren't favoring any political party. Our media are fully independent and won't throw dirt.
Anyways. My 2 cents. I could go on but you get the idea. the USA is not perfect at all and has many flaws. Neither is my country by the way.
@John Jacob Jingleheimer-Schmidt yep
This is why I love being an American and will gladly do so until the day I die.
I hate what this nation has come to but I'll be damned if I forget where we came from.
Together, the USA is the greatest nation. Together, the USA is the country to be. Together, we will stand with our flag, country, and GOD HIMSELF.
I salute all troops and hold them higher than myself for they are willing to give themselves... For me and my family. What greater sacrifice can there be?
GOD bless you all and thanks for putting this together.
AMEN well said! I will stand up next to anyone who stands up for this country I will give my life for those who stand up with me to fight for her, I do NOT CARE whether the person standing next to me is black, yellow, brown, white or purple with pink polka dots if they stand for what this country once was and fight for her then I will die for them.
Amen! And I'll be happy to help any American Service Member and gladly sacrifice for them! GOD BLESS AMERICA ❤️
I'm 15 and love this country so much even though I'm young I still would do what is needed for this country
Wow, thanks for your comment, it has choked me up. I have 2 boys that are currently serving this great land!
A Timeless refrain that will bring a tear to the eye of every true American whether heard now or 100 years from now. Especially meaningful in these trying times. Thanks LEE! AND a special thanks to the guys of HOMEFREE.
God Bless USA 🇺🇸 ❤ This is so very beautiful ❤️
Hello Cindy Conway, how are you doing?
My family left a SOCIALIST Country to come here and we are much GREAT
FULL and proud to be an American🇺🇸
So sad for your family, are party are you ( Democrat or Republican)
@@deanmarion5477 I'm sure if they left a socialist country, they probably aren't part of the socialist party
@@bradya456: are you for Trump?
Which one exactly?
I'm living in a socialist country right now and my dream is to go to US or Canada (legally). Maybe 5 years later maybe 10, but I won't give up. I feel so bad that many Americans didn't realize how lucky they are and wanna make America become a socialist country.
I got chills when he said “Across the plains of Texas.” Such a good song!
Me too...this coming from a Texas Proud Lady!
It gives me chills too and a beautiful song reminding us how great this country is! We need more of this and all patriots have to stand together and defend her from Marxism!
He's from Southeast Texas... not too far from me

This is the most Beautiful version of this song, I wish this would come out as a single.. this should be playing all over our great country, wake people up. Love you guys😊
Hello Sharon Galbo, how are you doing today?
I will never forget being an Air Force brat living in little rock afb in AR when the soliders from the first gulf war were coming home. I was only 8 but as the c130s taxing in put the flag on top i started singing this song and next thing you know everyone was singing it. I am still proud my fellow soldiers before me got a proper welcome home!!!
We need more patriotism every day in the United states of America.
Not for me. All Countries Matter, or did you not get the memo?
Solarbot how about you have pride and be patriotic for once in your life how about that?
No matter how thing's are I am a proud American .

This song has a special meaning to a lot of us. I heard Lee Greenwood do this song in concert at Ft Bliss, TX. 3 weeks after I got home from Operation Desert Storm. Not sure there was a dry eye in the house. Mine sure weren't!
I was there and I was teary as well.
Thank you for your service!🇺🇸

This is my absolute FAVORITE version of this song, because of the soldiers singing it!!!! God bless ALL of our military!!!! Without them we wouldn't have our freedoms!!!! God bless America!!!!!!!! 🇺🇸 ❤ 🇺🇸
I was in the US for some years. Now back in India.
Always remember America and Americans and it brings a smile to my face. God really bless the USA.
This is what American should stand for. I love this song and all it stands for. This is should be our new National anthem! “The flag still stands for freedom, and they can’t that away!”
K A If it is changed this should be our Next National Anthem
with this whole debate about changing the national anthem, i can go with this song being a replacement. unfortunately, the commies and nazis will have an issue with it saying "god" in it.
I agree. If we ever did change our National Anthem, then this is the one I would vote for. 🎶❤️🇺🇸❤️
