A Song for the Giving Souls

Dedicated to the Service Men and Women of Our Country in the Name of Freedom

Joseph Timmons

Today, I would stand

I would speak for those

Whose voices are but whispers in the air

Those who gave it all

So many years ago

And some who gave just yesterday

Engaged to uphold the charge

By choice with valor and honor

They are many; our heritage is because of them

Those how fell in the battlefield

And those who made it home

Some say they were called to serve

I believe they marched on to save

To save us from our foes

And sometimes, from ourselves

This Independence Day

Rise from your heart

In prayers of solidarity

Remember those

Who paved the many roads we walk in life

Because of them

Everyday

Is the Fourth of July

Remember, Forever and Salute
