to Irving Berlin's God Bless America. By the 50s, some of the lyrics had come to be considered "anti-American." Pete Seeger and Bruce Springsteen restored those lyrics at Obama's inaugural concert on the mall in 2009.

I love singing it. Still have the lyrics from a chorus group, I participated in with adults with disabilities. All of these beautiful souls loved singing that song.
