A Grateful Nation

A grateful nation welcomes home her heroes

When the fight is done,

Reaching deep to heal the wounds of war

So they might carry on.

 

A grateful nation mourns the loss of

Those who paid the final price,

Comforts those they left behind

In honor of their sacrifice.

 

A grateful nation knows that freedom

Must be bought by blood and sweat.

Forging on with confidence,

No second guessing, no regrets.

 

A grateful nation prays, although the gift

Is oft misunderstood.

A psalm of praise to one on high

Whose grace provides all that is good.

 

A grateful nation will not falter,

Will not waiver on its course,

Seeks to lift the people’s spirit,

Moving on with no remorse.
