As we sit around our tables We bow our head for those unable To realize that in our hearts They are here and have a part Join hands now and touch their spirit With grateful light that they will feel it Knowing that the love we share On this day our hearts are there Keeping faith in all they do With freedom's glory next to you And yes they truly are the reason We celebrate this special season With all the faith that we can gather We pray to God in this their hour Let them feel the love we share Reach their spirits every where Today just like any other day With one great meaning as we pray Celebrating freedom's glory Because of every soldier's story.
