Let's stop today to say a prayer,
    get down on bended knee;
To thank Our Lord for all the one's,
    who died so we'd be free.

They gave their lives to fight for us,
   fought battles in each war;
To see we'd all be free to walk,
    this land from shore to shore.

Each husband, wife or daughter,
   each son or just a friend;
Gave all in heat of battle,
   our country to defend.

So say a prayer for those who served,
    who answered beckon call;
They died to let our freedom ring,
    those saints each gave their all!
