It’s life, freedom and liberty
These rights given to me
America, America always will be
The land of the free!
For you will I fight
With all of my might
Keeping this freedom in sight
Amidst the bomb’s blazing light!
In God do we trust
Stand with Him we must
Through the sands and dust
And with every rifle thrust!
The message that I send
With no thought of pretend
America will I ever defend
Until my very dying end!

In memory of those who lost their live on 9/11 and
all those who have served protecting us ever since.
The day you asked me
if I’d marry you
how could I have foresee
when we said I do
And the wedding was over
on that very same day
word coming from Dover
that you’re called away
How could I ever know
you’d be taken from me
before the bouquet I’d throw
or the reception we’d see
Rice still in the packet
the sound of running feet
making such a loud racket
as our eyes would meet
“I’m so sorry,” was said
“Darling, I love you!”
as away you were led
with the groomsmen too
No, I didn’t know
left crying I’d be
’cause you had to go
fight for our country
Just be safe, baby,
wherever you may go
and come home so maybe
that reception we’ll throw!

For you, Nate, and Military Appreciation Week
My nephew, an inactive serviceman, invited me to become a member of a very worthwhile organization today. Have you ever heard of this:
What about God?
