Soldier's Song

You sing the song of freedom and what you think is right,
You protect the things we love and let us sleep in peace through the night,
You pay the price of freedom, even though it costs a lot,
Because you love your country and strive to keep us free,
Freedom does not come wothout sacrifice,
If you die or if you live you shall sleep in peace knowing you did what you think is right.
