It Will Take

It will take patriots to defend the nation
It will take those who say, "Don't tread on me"
It will take the hearts of men and women
Across the land from sea to sea

It will take those who long have spoken
Of eternal vigilance
Who knew from long ago
It would take their diligence

It will take a nation rising
Against the insurrection
It will take a people who love liberty
And rise to its protection
