Let Freedom Ring - Virgilio I Gonzales - Bog

My dream of freedom and better opportunity for my family came true. America is still the land of opportunity and freedom. I remember when the Philippines was still a commonwealth of the United States, and I was in grade school, we sang "The Star Spangled Banner" and "My Country 'Tis of Thee."

We did not come here on the Mayflower, but America has become our adopted country. Let freedom ring!

"My country tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing.
Land where my father died!
Land of the Pilgrim's pride,
From every mountain side,
Let freedom ring!"
