Story Behind The Song

A heartfelt thank you to all our Military, active and inactive, that took the pledge to serve this country. I wrote this for a Country artist that tours the country paying tribute to all our hero's.

Lyrics

I hope to catch your spirit
As I reach out and shake your hand
I see old glory waving as stars and stripes
Bleed protecting our land

I hope America understands
A soldier is more than just a command
I hope America always stands
With the military woman and man
With the military woman and man

As I travel from place to place
I see wars anger hidden in your face
I never hear a cry for help
But I see the scars that tested your faith

I hope America understands
A soldier is more than just a command
I hope America always stands
With the military woman and man
With the military woman and man

Instrumental

I want to thank every soldier
For the pledge to protect this land
Everyone a patriot that remains
In my heart, in my prayers

I hope to catch your spirit
As I reach out and shake your hand
I see old glory waving as
Stars and stripes bleed protecting our land

I hope America understands
A soldier is more than just a command

I hope America always stands
For the military woman and man

God bless America's military woman and man
