Freedom

Freedom is a gift from God

Everyone needs to own

If freedom is not in your life

You must really feel alone

 

Freedom is a privilege in the USA

Hooray for our American pride
So if you decide to join us all

We will be there with arms open wide

 

Don't take freedom for granted

There are some who don't do their part

Most Americans will do what they can

We love our country with all of our heart

 

It doesn't come easy

This freedom we share

Many lives have been lost

As it seems so unfair

 

Those who were lost

Are the ones who care most

They were loyal to the end

And seldom would boast

 

We must do our duty

No matter how small

The power of living

Is there for us all
