Half mast pride

A flag flies half mast, a nation stands in mourning
A nation quickly gripped with fear, it came without a warning
How could this have happened? What brought this hatred to a head?
A nation built on freedom yet the innocent lie dead
Across the sea- a war, the fires are still burning
And still the endless onslaught, the sound of bombs returning
Here we're safe at home free from civil war and strife
But tell that to the unborn who's mother took his life
First World nation liberty, In God we trust
Flags held high!
Violence, corrupted politics, on we march
Half Mast Pride!

A flag flies at half mast, the flag that's in my heart
This was once a Godly country, but now it's torn apart
There's killing in our schools, killing in our streets
They're killing the unborn, is there no retreat?
This is a blessed country, I know it could be worse
But I don't like the way they want to separate the Church
Founded on the truth, one nation under God
If you take out that foundation, some day we're gonna fall
