Heroes

They fly in the sky, they sail the sea. They walk on land to keep us free. The world is proud, the world will smile Oh, dear lord help us now! They live each day with danger in the way. Please, lord, keep them safe. Those we lost we mourn each day; Those who fight are still in harm's way. I pray each day to hear everyone say' These are heroes in a very special way. The hero is you, and you it will be That makes this whole world free. The world is not blind, The world can see Who are those heroes that keep us free. Free to love and free to smile Free to live and be proud You are my hero strong and brave Even on those rainy days. We thank you each day for making us safe. We thank you each day with god's grace. Be safe and be proud For we will see you in a little while.
