"God Bless America" is for sissies

Can I just tell you how much it irritates me that "God Bless America" seems to have become our minor league national anthem--the national anthem for folks who can't quite bring themselves to like "The Star Spangled Banner"? "God Bless America" is for sissies. It's for people who like certainty and ease of singing and easy-to-identify-with but meaningless imagery and any efforts, serious or half-hearted to change our national anthem to it ought to be met with a great deal of laughter. Give me something hard to sing and full of uncertainty. Give me something from the point of view of someone fearful but brave. Give me a song with proof that we can survive terrible times right there in the middle of it. Give me a song that doesn't locate our essence in the blessing or lack thereof of the same Guy who everyone else thinks is on their side. In other words, keep giving me what we've got. We've already got the perfect national anthem, one that implies a great deal about our national essence and nothing about the outward trappings. Seriously, look at this again, and tell me it's not perfect:

Oh, say can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
