Lyrics A Beautiful Divorce - Micah McCaw

Scores of years ago
The birth of a new lie
Lovely old glory
Made it through the night

Speaking in tongues
About this chosen continent
Then singing on Sundays
To bless the whole firmament

The groom in red, white, and blue
The bride kneeled at the cross
The knot comes undone
As it's stretched across

The amber waves of grain
Drift softly in the wind
The herd of buffalo
Begins to thin again

This is a beautiful divorce
Time to find
A more perfect union

This is a beautiful divorce
No more country
Of Christ's Kingdom

This is a beautiful divorce

No more flags
Where my Bible should be
No more pledging allegiance
To a land instead of the King
