A new song was suggested about fifty years ago. They suggested the BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC with new words. My thoughts? Like a lead balloon!

I would suggest..
“You’re a Grand Old Flag” by George M. Cohan
STARS AND STRIPES FOREVER..Who needs words!
“God Bless America” by Irving Berlin.

Kate Smith's rendition of "God Bless America" is phenomenal.

But it would be criticized as too Christian and too religious.
