Ciara Rose Drexler's touching song, “Civilian Song”,
and its video features the community of Alexandria, MN
and surrounding towns, who recently met at the local
high school football field to help cheer and sing for
the filming of it . . . all
in support of the men and women who serve and have served
in the military to protect our beloved America and freedom.
LYRICS
Verse 1 To the soldier who's been gone for so
long We've been here, cheering you on With
our civilian's song
Never once has this been
in vain We will never forget the names Of all
of those who freely gave For freedom's cause
Chorus 1 Oh the things you must have seen
The things you must have done The things you must
have lost And all the battle's you have won
For such a heavy price We just want to say
Thank you for the sacrifice
Verse 2 To the
soldier far from home Whose fearless strength
carries on May these words keep you strong In
our civilian's song (Chorus1)
Bridge 1
So we will stand up Everybody say it louder
Everybody say it prouder God Bless the USA So
we will stand up Everybody say it louder
Everybody say it prouder I love the USA
(Instrumental, Chorus 2)
Chorus 2 Oh the
things you must have seen The things you must
have done The things you must have lost And
all the battle's you have won All for freedom's
cause We just want to say Thank you for it
all
Bridge 2 In the cold and in the night
And in the warmth of the bright sunlight Remember
this as you march on We stand for you in our
civilian's song
