=============================


"We Thank You" written by Joe Monto

Verse 1:
He looks into her eyes
She puts her hope in his return
How hard it must be for them, uncertain war approachin'
She starts to cry
He gets on the plane, waves goodbye

Verse 2:
It's been her life-long dream
To proudly serve as a marine
She writes her son a letter from Baghdad
Wishing mommy was home holding him
But she's got a job to do
And she's committed to see it through


Chorus:
Thank you, for your sacrifice
The freedom that you bring
Thank you, for laying down your life
And giving everything,
For me, for my family
And we thank you

Verse 3:
There's a knock at the door
It's the worst of their fears
Their son's been killed in Iraq
Another casualty of combat
He wouldn't want them to cry
For our country he died

Bridge:
To our troops around the world
Brave men & women fighting for us
We wave red white & blue
Our prayers go out to you

  • @hankidan welcome home :) god bless

  • To the Men and Women of our Armed Forces and The Familes of those Men and Women, Thank you is not strong enough to express the gratitude that I feel for your sacrifices that allow those of us who do not have the strength and the courage to do the same to allow us to be Free. The true extent of your sacrifces may be forgotten by some, but songs like this exist to remind us all that we should never forget. So once again, Thank you may your service to this country never be forgotten.

  • WHAT AN AMAZING SONG, AND VIDEO!! You put into words all of the feelings that are bottled up inside of me...for you see, my husband is on his first deployment to Afghanistan, and I am all alone here in Tennessee....He is so very worried about me, and yes, I couldn't be more afraid...but, more than that, I am bursting with PRIDE for what he, and his fellow soldiers, men and women alike, are doing over there!! Thanks for this song, and THANKS TO OUR TROOPS!! I <3 U Robert!! Stay safe, all of u!!
