Thank You

 

Every day you are ready

Ready to protect

Ready to fight

There are no holidays

With what you do

 

You’re here

In my city

In my state

In my country

You’re over there

Away from home

Away from family

Sometimes all alone

 

Still you stand

Ready to defend

What it is we believe in

 

You fight

For me

You fight

So I don’t have to

Every day you stand

Ready for what may come

 

You are not forgotten

Your sacrifices are known

 

Today

I thank you

For all that you do

Today

I thank you

For keeping me safe

Today

I thank you

For watching while I sleep

 

Thank You to the Men and Women of the Armed Forces, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
