A Soilders Sacrifice

A Soilders Sacrifice


Freedom for our country does not come for free
Each individual soilder gave his all for you and me
Leaving all behind, not knowing if our soilder would come home
Many family members sitting by the phones

Some soilders came back and his eyes wonder in space
We want to embrace them and the memories erase
God bless the soilders that did not return
The whole nation with your families forever mourns

The sacrifices that were made, soilders have to be tough
Our nation could never thank you enough
The soilder will always be a soilder within
Would not even think twice about it, would serve again

Yes, freedom for our country does not come for free
Each individual soilder gave his all for you and me
