To Serve, To Protect

THEY SERVE TO PRESERVE

They serve to preserve our forefathers dreams,

Prayers, visions and determination.

Risking all in pursuit of fulfillment of duty

To God, freedom, faith, honor and nation.

Despite dismemberment, death and loneliness

Patriots enlist to safeguard our flag.

With honor, faith, purpose and courage

They battle the sadistic that brag.

Throughout man’s past as a creature of earth

War has always plagued his expectance.

Greed, hate, fear, envy and rage

Have overruled rapture and repentance.

David was a soldier who lived by his faith

Which gave him the will to become brave.

He stood up to terror and toppled the giant

Leaving Goliath headless and alone in his grave.

David’s call thrives in hearts of soldiers today

Shielding liberty from the warmongers of hell.

Facing down evil refusing to summit

Ensuring freedom and justice are alive and well.

Those of us blessed by the safety of home

Must remember the sacrifice of the few.

Run up your flag and show your support

For the heroes of the red, white and blue.
