You gave for peace with courage That families may be free So children could grow strong And safe they'd ever be.
In giving for the sake of peace You may have suffered loss Your body may still show its wounds From taking up the cause.
May remembrance of your time away Your sacrifice for peace Spur us on to strive more strongly For freedom, that there'll be release.
From causes that sent some away To fight that we may freely live With gratefulness we thank you, For all you gave and give!
Happy Veterans Day!
This is the day we remember our veterans and thank them for their service. This should be an every day occurrence, not just once a year. Thank you Veterans for my freedom and for keeping me and my country safe.
