We Were The Immigrants

We came from England, Germany and Mexico From Spain, China, Japan and Puerto Rico, We arrived from Ireland, Scotland and Africa We all came as immigrants to America. Like the tree with many colored leafs We are a county of many different beliefs, We are a diverse country for the many And we are the melting pot for any. We are not one religion or one race Just come and look upon our face, You will see us, and our heritage To stand united, we will, that I pledge. We might stand apart or together But, Lady Liberty is still our mother, We say welcome to all that comes to our land And for their right and freedom we will stand. We are the rich and we are the poor We are the needy who asks for more, Justice for us liberty holds the weights We are the people of the United States. Randy L. McClave
