And finally, an on-topic question (which _might_ show that I need to go back and read more carefully):
I don't know if that'd work. I took hints and turned them into logical

God bless America, Land that I love! Stand beside her, and guide her Thru the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, To the oceans, white with foam… God bless America! My home, sweet home.
