Pause A Moment |
 |
|
Friends and family gather
For Independence Day -
We'll celebrate our freedom
And the American way.
They'll be picnics in the park -
And fireworks in the sky
As some salute "Old Glory"
With a teardrop in their eye.
There's some who can't be with us -
They died in some foreign land -
For when Liberty was threatened
They heard the call and made their stand.
So, as we reap the harvest
Of the great American dream -
Let's pause a moment, thank those
Who paid the price, supreme. |
