| In The Eyes Of The World (Lewis) Once there were men out testin' every way When this country was still young This was a land of equality, a home for the refugee And people were always ready to lend a hand In the eyes of the world this was America And it was not so long ago What do we now to make a stand, build a home of this old land What makes a man so proud to say In the eyes of the world this was a new frontier A place were men can walk on common ground Thinking for themselves and living free from fear And everyone can come and settle down All across the nation from the East and West And in the mid a spirit's growing strong Grounded on the sense of our own liberty There is a common feel to carry on In the eyes of the world this was America And it was not so long ago What do we need some foreign for? This country's got an open door Makin' a man so proud to say In the eyes of the world this was America And it was not so long ago |
