Hail To Our Unsung Heroes

It took Covid-19 to help us realize, That our healthcare workers are heroes, Who work to save lives, at the risk of their own demise, Like soldiers who risk all to conquer their foes. Like warriors they leave home to enter the fray, Their calling to save lives they do not betray, In the face of great obstacles they give of their best, And work for long hours with no thought of rest. The battle with Covid has taken a toll, And many of these heroes have been added to its roll, But because of their sacrifice many lives have been saved, Who without their efforts in the jaws of Covid would have stayed. Lord I thank you for these unsung heroes, Who care for us in the midst of our mental and physical woes, With compassion and skill and the heart of a servant, Deserving of the honor reserved for the valiant and the gallant.
