In honor of JFK and all those who died in the service of our country.



Thank you, God, for the gift of life,

Thank you, God, for my wonderful wife.

For the courage you instilled, in our soldiers' souls,

Especially those, who've played out their roles.



Died not in vain, for we're still free,

To enjoy Your blessings, of liberty.

It's still the land, of the free and the brave,

Because of them, our flag can wave.



For being with us, night and day,

From deep within, we give thanks and pray.

To You alone, we all belong,

We ask You keep, our country strong.
