What Heroes Gave
by
Roger Robicheau
Each donned their uniform to be
Defenders of our liberty
Their mission sure, their spirits bright
Guard freedom's home, be brave to fight
One final day each faced their call
Each gave their best enduring all
We'll never know what they went through
But know they loved this country true
Deep down inside we should all feel
What heroes gave, their cost so real
We must stay thankful, grateful of
The gift of freedom through their love
Their loved ones bore the gravest pain
What we can't know, some now sustain
To God I pray their pain will cease
And each will find long-lasting peace
Remember this from year to year
What heroes gave " shan't disappear
We'll never let their special day
Their time for honor slip away
These brave fought for a nation free
If not for them, where would we be?
