The price our soldiers pay for our freedom
Firecrackers in the sky
Bursts of color before our eyes
Celebrations everywhere why?
Our soldiers, who both live and die
Parties, picnics, food galore
Hot dogs, watermelon, and more
Time with family we adore
Because of our soldiers*, brave to their core
Freedom to worship, freedom to pray
Freedom to be whomever we may
A home and pillow our heads to lay
Because of the price our soldiers pay
God bless every woman and man
Who serve our country the best they can
Troubles in life, from them please ban
And bless them Lord, with all that you can

*I use the word soldiers here as a generic term. Thank you to all who serve, in all branches!!
