Thank you for your service – v3

Thank you for your service
simple words, appropriate
on this day, all year
Going where I would not go
standing for our freedoms
out in the dark world

Thank you for your service
to each veteran, at their gravesites
for your answer to our call
Serving nobly, bravely
giving us your all

Thank you for your service
simple words, appropriate
on this day, all year
It is the least we can say
for, because of you,
we share freedoms every day
