Soldiers

Soldiers Protectors, peacekeepers, sometimes quiet, always strong Fighting for the cause, the promise, democracy, the freedom for all Paying with life and limbs, saving broken people But ever more standing tall, standing strong Soldiers for our past, present and future, in spirit and combat Defending with God’s thunder and strength Giving it all, everything of you, sacrificing time with family Fighting, protecting a foreign land, full of enemies, catastrophes No matter what always taking a stand Fortifying the right to live safe and free Over here and across the sea Sacrifices of great men and women So we can do the simplest things You give it all, standing tall, in a blazing sun Tropical lands and events of nature In times of peace, in times of unrest You are there for us, for them answering the call Instinctively, brave men and women giving your all
