Lyrics We Remember - Steven Curtis Chapman

We Remember

This is for the ones who heard the fight for freedom calling
For the ones who answered, «I'll do what I can»
For the ones who ran to battle
Who believed that freedom mattered
This is for you
This is for the ones whose orders took them to the front lines
For the ones who fell and never made it home
For the ones who came back broken
With memories too hard to be spoken
Oh this is for you
We remember, we remember
We are thankful, we are grateful
We know freedom isn’t free
We remember, we remember
The gift you gave, the price you paid
Is not in vain and it will never be forgotten
We remember
This is for the ones whose war is wondering and waiting
For the moms and dads and families back at home
Those with pictures by their beds
Who had to learn to live again
Oh this is for you
We remember, we remember
We are thankful, we are grateful
We know freedom isn’t free
Oh we remember, we remember
The gift you gave, the price you paid
Is not in vain and it will never be forgotten
For we remember
Every time we chase our dreams
Or pray out loud, speak our minds
And even when we disagree
Oh we remember
And though sometimes we’ve lost our way
We’re still the land of the free and the home of the brave
We remember, we remember
We are thankful, we are grateful
We know freedom isn’t free
Oh we remember, we remember
The gift you gave, the price you paid
Is not in vain and it will never be forgotten
We remember
We remember
Oh we remember
