The Soldier Pays

What do they mean it’s the results that could not be foreseen?
It’s about the mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, husbands and wives
that laid their lives on the line for the peace we enjoy at this time
Liberty is not free and for it the soldier must pay.

There were those who came home and those who did not
and on this day we will let them know they will never be forgot.
Even this day around the world, we are here and there
but that is our way of life, to help everywhere.

Remember each morning when the sun comes up,
it was made possible by what each gave up.
Let us not take for granted what we have today,
it was given to us by those they took away.

Let us put into perspective the meaning of Memorial and Veterans Days
and thank from the bottom of our hearts all those who showed the way.
This thank you is from me and those who cannot,
and let them know, they will never be forgot!
