A poem for our troops worldwide.
To our fighting men and women,
Who risk their lives everyday,
So that way we keep livin’
Our lives in every way.

Americans, we stand strong,
Together side by side,
To right what is wrong,
Together we confide.

Freedom of religion,
Speech and press as well.
We defend our Constitution,
Liberty – the world we tell.

Washington, Adams, and Franklin too,
The men who created a nation.
Together they pushed the British, who flew
As fast as they could, to our elation.

We defeated them then,
As we defeat our enemies now.
As Jesus was born in Bethlehem,
It’s ordained – that is how.
