Happy 4th of July!

I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS,

ONE NATION UNDER GOD,

INDIVISIBLE WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!

KEEP IT LIT!! KEEP IT LIT!!

For all of the True Americans, wherever they may be!

And God Bless the families of the men who gave their lives for the Freedom that we have in this Great Nation under God!

Thanks To them, and their sacrifices we can celebrate the 4th of July!

We must never forget who gave us the Freedoms that we have in this Great Nation, of which we should be eternally Grateful!

I watched the flag pass by one day,

It fluttered in the breeze.

A young Marine saluted it,

And then he stood at ease.

I looked at Him in uniform so young, so tall and proud,

With hair cut square and eyes alert He'd stand out in any crowd.

I thought of how many men like him,

Had fallen through the years.

How many died on foreign soil,

How many mothers' tears?

How many pilots' planes shot down?

How many died at sea?

How many foxholes were soldiers' Graves?
No, freedom isn't free.

I heard the sound of Taps one night,

When everything was still.

I listened to the bugler play,

And felt a sudden chill.

I wondered just how many times,

That Taps had meant 'Amen'.

When a flag had draped a Coffin,

Of a brother or a friend.

I thought of all the Children,

Of the Husbands and the Wives.

Of Mothers, Sons and Daughters,

With interrupted lives.

I thought about a graveyard,

At the bottom of the sea.

Of unmarked graves in Arlington,

No, freedom isn't free.

Enjoy Your Freedom!

And May God Bless the True Baptists that made it possible.

Please stop for a moment

And Say a Prayer for our servicemen.

Of all the gifts you could give, Prayer is the very best One.

AND REMEMBER, IF THERE WERE NO BAPTISTS, THERE WOULD BE NO UNITED STATES OF

AMERICA AS YOU KNOW IT TODAY!
