Our Fallen

Had I have been at Arlington National Cemetery on Veterans day these would be the words I would have said.

With heartfelt thanks we now honor them
These great men and women who lie here
Each has given their life for our freedom
Now they are in our Savior's eternal care

Called to fight for the country they loved
They have given up their life here on Earth
Knowing that they could have stayed home
But if they did what would their life be worth

Not one of these brave souls wanted to die
To protect their families they went to war
Heartaches are felt by the many here today
Knowing on Earth we will see them no more

But take heart my dear friends and relatives
They are waiting in Heaven to see you one day
Be guided by God who is in His Heavenly home
Tell Him you love them tonight when you pray
