Heroes

In the light of day and the dark of night.
Our heroes stand watch and ready to fight.
They shed their blood and give their lives.
They protect our children, our friends and wives.

Our freedom rings, Old Glory stands.
So much blood now soaks our lands.
Fallen soldiers at rest now laid.
Their deaths demanded, that price they paid.
