Signs of Pride

Look for signs of pride
Pride in our land
Look for signs of boasting
Signs of a wicked band

Look for signs of pride
In the people 
In the candidates who run for office
Even in those beneath a church's steeple

Look for signs of pride
Those who put down the poor
Whether they are on the streets
Or at our nation's door

Look for signs of pride
Is there a boastful candidate
Who says he'll save the nation?
He seeks not just winning
But a coronation

Make America great again?
For that, he says he's the ride
Is this the voice of reason?
Or the voice of pride?

What do we mean by "great again"?
Better than everyone else?
Why not a call to be a humble nation
With a heart that sees those in need and melts?

Good again is all the great we need again
For too much pride is too much sin
