To all the men in uniform and all the women Too
Who serve so faithfully for the red, white and Blue
May the Flag forever wave over the land we love so Dear
The land that God has blessed for many and many a Year
May we always remember those who left us a Legacy
Of many values learned, to keep our Liberty
May we pay a tribute to all, who paid the highest Price
To say thank you one and all, for some have lost their Life
Never to forget the sacrifices Made
To keep the Stars and Stripes over the land of the Brave
The land of the Free whose doors are open Wide
Is a refuge to those who would like to come Inside
God blessed this land with beauty, grace and Pride
He also blessed the people who will not run or Hide,
For freedom rings today in the Great Land of the True
Long may the flag wave, of The Red, White and Blue.
