There is the Singing Inspirations version; and then the other version.
I would like to have them both, so I wont get them mixed up.
I hope I dont get you good people and helpers confused.
Thank you.

This is the other version:

That rugged cross of long ago where Jesus bled and died
Became a sacred symbol of hope and truth and right
Where there is no cross there can be no liberty
For sin will build a prison and men cannot go free

Chorus
All across this country; this old country needs the cross
The Christian faith that made it great
Must somehow not be lost
One nation under God is a truth no longer taught
And all across this country; this old country needs the cross

The mind of man is staggered by the problems all around
Our leaders search for answers that somehow can't be found
While we spend our millions seeking what we've lost
All this country really needs is a trip back to the cross

Here are the Inspirations' lyrics

All across the country, the country needs the cross
This land was built on freedom but still our kids can't pray in school
They used to read the Bible ut now that reads the rules
Even on our money it says In God We Trust
It's time we Christians show the world that it still stands true for us

Chorus
All across the country, the country needs the cross
A symbol of redemption and it paid for us all
A statue of liberty came to save a world that's lost
All across the country, the country needs the cross

Our fathers fought and gave their lives for a flag that waves so proud
But now we burn the stars and stripes. We've let Old Glory down
These laws that break our hearts today were made on Capitol Hill
We need to clim that hill once more where Jesus' blood was spilled
