This special day arrives on July 4th each and every year

To all of us Americans, to our heart it should be so dear

You see this day isn’t just a day to be off work and cook out by the pool

It’s a celebration of our independence as a country from a strong tyrant’s rule

The lives that were lost and families that struggled back then, in unbearable pain

All felt it was worth it for our freedom, to them it must be gained

Now as we live here in America, FREE, in the greatest country on this earth

I’ll be forever thankful to my  ancestors who fought for what they knew our freedom was worth

So enjoy your day with family and friends at a BBQ or maybe on the lake

And for those that fought for our freedom, to them be sure to bow your head and give thanks

     GOD BLESS AMERICA

From My World to Yours,
Bob Baker
