Independence Day

~ Independence Day ~ Born into freedom I can’t imagine any other life Free to make up my own mind Free to choose my own path For this I am forever grateful As I stand up and salute The Red, White and Blue On ~ Independence Day ~ It comes with pride Compassion Respect A Call to Duty All traits to be honored And admired So here is to our men and women of the armed forces Helping keep our country free and safe Standing up for what we believe in Standing Proud, Strong, and United I salute you Every day and especially on ~ Independence Day ~ To those have served before To those who have gone and passed away Be it in the line of duty Or any other way I salute you Every day not just on ~ Independence Day ~ So here is to this country Standing proud Strong And United under our banner Our flag Letting freedom reign over The Red, White and Blue One nation With billions of hearts Joined as one On ~ Independence Day ~ By: Jean Shular For all the soldiers, past, present and future Living and passed on I salute you I thank you!
