Remember our soldiers
Whether here or far away
Keep them in your hearts
Throughout the night and day
Remember our soldiers
On land, in the air, or at sea
They sacrifice daily
In the name of liberty
Remember our soldiers
Some won't make it home
Some are in the deserts
Some are all alone
Remember our soldiers
Homeless on the streets
Feeling abandoned
Their only defeat
Remember our soldiers
Serving the Red, White and Blue
Honor their courage
In everything they do
Remember our soldiers
When one by chance you meet
Extend a hand in gratitude
For each heroic feat
Remember our soldiers
For they remember you
Caring, sharing, preparing
Before bidding adieu
Remember our soldiers
Amid joyousness and laughter
Remember our soldiers
At Christmas time and thereafter

While celebrating during the Christmas season
Always remember those away from home
Keep them in your hearts, cherish them in your soul
A day may come when you find yourself alone
A day may come when you find yourself alone
Thank you Sharla. I do hope everyone remembers the soldiers for Christmas and every other day they are fighting or serving to protect our freedom often paying the ultimate price.

It saddensand irks me everytime I hear someone make a derogatory remark about our soldiers. Bet the person talking never served a day, not one day!
