Porter Wagoner Lyrics

I Dreamed I Saw America On Her Knees Lyrics
I dreamed I saw America on her knees

She knelt in prayer with humble outstretched hands

Last night I fell asleep sittin' in my favorite chair

I had read the evenin' paper news of trouble everywhere

Evil spread throughout the nation like a dark cloud overhead

Crime increasing faith descreasing people saying God is dead

Then I saw a great revival spreading like a mighty wind

From every city town and village starting first in the hearts of men

Every church bell started ringing every Christian took their stand

And people learnt to love each other

And the great and the small walked hand in hand

I dreamed I saw America on her knees

She knelt in prayer with humble outstretched hands

I dreamed that God in heaven heard her plea

And with tender love reached down and healed our land
