Back in late 2017, as our great nation was becoming increasingly secular,
I felt compelled to write something to try and remind our people as to why we are the luckiest country in the world and that we must turn back to God as a nation before we lose His blessing.
lyrics
Southern Land
This is The Southern Land
South Land of The Holy Spirit
Great South Land
Special place
This is a special place
Still living under God's Grace
Great South Land
Great South Land
We must keep the Faith if we want to have Grace
It is not an accident that our nation is great
We must keep the Faith if we want to have Grace
We've been blessed as a nation because of Faith
Southern Land
This is The southern land
Made great by God's own hand
Great South Land
Special place
This is a special place
But there are laws that we can not replace
Great South Land
Great South Land
We must keep the Faith if we want to have Grace
It is not an accident that our nation is great
We must keep the Faith if we want to have Grace
We've been blessed as a nation because of Faith
Great South Land
Great South Land
