This Is Our Land

The red is for the blood shed Sacrifice of the brave Giving their lives selflessly So that we may live free Rushing in as heros Never giving a second thought Giving everything they have Until the very last war is fought White is for the purity That lies within their souls For only those pure of heart Would sign up for such a role Always striving for a better world A world of freedom and peace Standing guard day and night As protection over you and me Blue is for the sweat and tears Of battles already fought and won Never going unaware, their faithful sacrifice We should thank each and every single one Sacrifice is what they gave and give of themselves Each and every single day Whether on a battlefield in action Or in their tomb or in their graves Whether they are young or old Woman or a man This sulate is for you my friends For your protection of our land
