First Nephi 13:30

Nevertheless, thou beholdest that the Gentiles who have gone forth out of captivity, and have been lifted up by the power of God above all other nations, upon the face of the land which is choice above all other lands, which is the land that the Lord God hath covenanted with thy father that his seed should have for the land of their inheritance; wherefore, thou seest that the Lord God will not suffer that the Gentiles will utterly destroy the mixture of thy seed, which are among thy brethren.

This is our legacy. God has lifted up America as a beacon to the world of what can be accomplished by a free people who worship Christ. Today the American nation is squandering that legacy by denying God, ignoring His commandments, and losing our sense of wonder and gratitude for His blessings.
