Tourniquet - America lyrics

[Musical Arrangement: Ted Kirkpatrick All instruments played by Ted Kirkpatrick]

Between the years of 1861-1865,

over 620,000 Americans died from gunshot,

disease or sickness

in the bloodiest battles of our nations history -

the Civil War.

Through the instrument of prejudice,

fear and hate,

a different battle rages on to this day.

But in Christ, we are all one people -

united in our commitment to God and each other -

because it is He who First loved us...
