The Wars of Freedom




The Wars of Freedom

"FREEDOM"
What does that word denote?
We enjoyed something wonderful
but had no right to gloat!
Freedom did not come easily
and may never be so again
We have allowed this to happen
and let the enemy into our den.
So now what will become of us
as to battle we go once more?
Hoping to secure our freedom
may God have mercy on us evermore...
This time may we remember
all those that have gone before
That fought hard for our "FREEDOM"
may this be the last time we go to war!
