| Thank you for serving God and our Country If somehow we should make you uncomfortable Or maybe offend you in any way By our thoughtless words or actions Then just let us know and say
We have no way of knowing Those of us who haven’t been Where you have gone to serve And what you have done or seen
So please forgive us for our thoughtlessness And let us know how you feel Just remember God will give us another chance And we wish you would as well
I know there are things We would not understand We couldn’t unless we had been there Where you have served and been
God bless you for your service And let us understand All the sacrifices you have made for us Just to be our normal selves
Freedom is something You can’t put a price upon But you have done the things That God would have done
He gave us his son To pay for our sins You gave us your life To pay for ours
So thank you for your service To God and man And forgive us when we offend The Lord will surely help us to understand

| Thanks Ms. Lora. I realized in talking to one of my new co-workers that sometimes what we say is a reminder of things they had rather forget and we really don't know what they have gone through so it was kind of an apologize. |

| That is so sweet of you. We all owe our soldiers a tremendous debt of gratitude and support in whatever way we are able, even if it is just to keep them in our prayers.
