The children of a grade school in Bellingham, Massachusetts will once again be able to sing the word "God" when they present Lee Greenwood's song "God Bless the U.S.A." during a school assembly about U.S. state geography on April 12th. The school administrators had originally told the children they must sing "We love the U.S.A." instead of "God bless the U.S.A." Parental anger and a local tv station story airing about the contoversy prompted the school to reverse their decision. When told of the controversy, Lee Greenwood said, "The most important word in the whole piece of music is the word God. Maybe the school should have asked the parents their thoughts before changing the lyrics to the song. They could have even asked the writer of the song, which I of course, would have said you can’t change the lyrics at all or any part of the song.”
