"Thank You"

Somewhere there's a mother crying in her hands
Praying for the son who's fighting in the sand
Somewhere there's a boy who's in a danger zone
Fighting to ensure his mother's safe at home

[Pre-Chorus:]
And oh say can you see
That oh freedom isn't free

[Chorus 1:]
Thank you for doing what you
Do to make sure we have the
Right to live the way we choose
Someone had to sacrifice
Risk their own to save a life
Thank you for doing what you do
What you do
What you do
What you do

Somewhere there's a father thinking of his child
He couldn't be more proud but afraid all the while
And somewhere there's a girl who's in a danger zone
Fighting to ensure her father's safe at home

[Pre-Chorus:]
And oh say can you see
That oh freedom isn't free

[Chorus 2:]
We thank you for doing what you
Do to make sure we have the
Right to live the way we choose
We thank you, for being one of the
Few who, go through what you
Go through, who walk in your shoes
Someone had to sacrifice
Risk their own to save a life

[Bridge:]
Know that we are praying
Praying for you every day
Know that we are waiting
And we are so proud to say

[Chorus 2:]
We thank you for doing what you
Do to make sure we have the
Right to live the way we choose
We thank you, for being one of the
Few who, go through what you
Go through, who walk in your shoes
Someone had to sacrifice
Risk their own to save a life

[Outro:]
Thank you for doing what you do
(You bring pride)
What you do
(You bring hope)
What you do
(Yes, you do)
What you do
