American Soldier
Our freedom was won by the simple man.
That wanted the best for their families under Gods plan.
They sacrifice their time at home.
To be with their children and watch them grow.
They die in a far away land, to help others to be free.
When I see a soldier, a hero is what i see.
I pray for their safety and their safe return.
To get the love from our nation, they have earned.
"No greater love for man than to give up his life." is what God does say.
The American Soldier does it every day.
The American soldier is our very best.
I thank God our nation is so blessed.
(MAY GOD WALK WITH THE ALL!)

in mountains or desert sand
and I find myself dreaming about
