HEROES ALL
They left their homes, their families’ love; they left at night, to do what’s right.
They knew the odds; it mattered not, if not them, then who? To do what’s right.
Standing tall and proud, most so young, some too old, heroes all, their stories told.
I’ll never know their kind of bravery, I didn’t join, I didn’t serve, sadly I wasn’t bold.
Thanks to all, brave heroes many, sons and daughters, some gave a little, some gave all.
Our peace and welfare, our way of life you guarantied, gratefully, you answered the call.
In your debt, America knows the price you paid, your families’ toll, God bless your soul.
To the Men and Women of Americas’ Armed Forces, and all that served;
Thank you for your service
