In
life we
share
our
bounty
With
freedom's
lasting
call
Each
soldier's
life
courageously
Now
sacrificed
for all

Throughout
our
cause of
history
On
freedom's
steps we
stand
To fight
or do or
die for
On any
foreign
land

So on
this day
we're
thankful
And
proud
our
colors
show
That we
are
there to
help
those
Oppressed
by
evil's
flow

Gathered
on
Thanksgiving
We bow
our
heads
and pray
That
those
who
serve
this
country
Will
feel our
love
each day

The
pride we
wear
with
honor
No
matter
where we
live
A moment
spent in
silence
For all
the love
they
give

For
those
whose
place is
empty
Where
once
their
sounds
were
heard
Their
spirits
joined
together
In
victory
well
served

We tie
our
yellow
ribbons
We keep
the
candle's
glow
Each
flicker
of a
constant
light
In honor
that we
show

For each
of you
our
family
Where
freedom's
glory
reigns
All
hearts
forever
joined
with you
In
constant
sweet
refrain

For all
the
brave
and
mighty
Who wear
their
colors
proud
We honor
and
revere
you
For
freedom's
quest
avowed.
