Saluting the Red, White and Blue
And what it means to me and you.
“Oh, say can you see…..”
Praying for those who fight to keep us free.
“By the dawn’s early light”
….We’ll never give up the fight !
“What so proudly we hailed“
Under our flag, we marched, flew and sailed
“At the twilight’s last gleaming”
Of a brighter future continually dreaming.
“Thru the perilous fight”
The banner’s a breathtaking sight !
“And the rocket’s red glare”
Our flag continued waving there.
“The bombs bursting in air”
Remembering those who died there….
“Gave proof through the night”
We’ll never give up the fight !!
“In full glory reflected”
Trusting God…Never rejected.
“O long may it wave”
Over this land of the free and brave.
“….Battle’s confusion” ….”the havoc of war”
Continually knocks upon our door.
“Praise the power that hath made…”
And the mighty price hath paid.
In the land of the brave.
…Remembering all they gave.
“In God is our trust”
Our cause is true and just.
We raise the banner high
To those who live…..and die.
“And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave”
We are free because of what many gave !!!!
