Though they are flawed
human motives blurred
maybe not so pure of heart
as the One who climbed the
cross
But fair to compare
a sacrifice for us
for the greater good
not focused on themselves
So many veterans
those who chose to serve
Sacrificing all for us
that we would be free
Like Christ in service
submitting their will
Offering their lives for us
that we would truly live
