Patriot Power Podcast: The American Revolution, Independence, and Our Founding Fathers

Show Notes

Welcome Back Patriots! Today I share a song that I created as part of the Revolutionary Rhythms Music page, which is music about the Revolutionary War. I couldn't find specific songs about founding fathers or battles, so I created my own! We have 5 or so on the website, with more being added frequently. There will be more songs posted as podcast episodes in between main episodes, and I hope you enjoy them.

This song is about George Washington and you can view the lyrics byclicking here or they are listed below:

In the heart of the struggle he stood tall With a fire in his eyes and a cannonball On the field of honor where the brave did fall Led by a man with courage strong as a wall

George Washington the beacon in the night He stood for freedom he fought the good fight From the valleys low to the mountains height He carved a path with justice burning bright

Through the winter's cold and the summer's blaze He inspired men with his steadfast gaze Fought for liberty in the darkest days Every step he took set the world ablaze

George Washington the beacon in the night He stood for freedom he fought the good fight From the valleys low to the mountains height He carved a path with justice burning bright

He crossed the Delaware in freezing rain Defied the odds broke the enemy's chain In the face of fear he knew no disdain Guided by honor not pursuit of gain

George Washington the beacon in the night He stood for freedom he fought the good fight From the valleys low to the mountains height He carved a path with justice burning bright _________ ALL links below are clickable within your podcast platform, so enjoy! ________ • ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patriot Power Podcast Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email Me⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok - Patriot Power Freedom Files⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠InstaGram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube Channel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Meet your Host, Ron Kern⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • Call or Text: 413-FREEDOM _______________ Please share this podcast with others and we would love for you to leave a review.

In this video, we break down exactly why the United States was designed as a constitutional republic, what Benjamin Franklin meant when he warned “A republic… if you can keep it,” and how the media, schools, and politicians have blurred this essential distinction.
