Another Officer has fallen, Lord, You must have had a very special reason for needing him now, which is unknown to us. Officer Liczbinski is now standing his watch in Your Kingdom. He watches and now protects ALL of us. God bless you Officer Liczbinski, and thank you for all your time of service and God bless your family for allowing you to serve. Dear Lord take care of him, for he is special and you now have another fine Officer.

The Badge"

He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.

He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.

Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.

He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.

His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.

He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.

And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.

But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.

Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.

Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.

So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.

In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.

Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.

Somebody killed a police officer today

And part of America died.

A piece of our country he swore to protect,

Will be buried with him at his side.



The suspect who shot him will stand up in court

Demanding all of his rights

While a widow and mother must work for the kids

And spend many long, lonely nights.

The Streets where he worked were a battlefield, too,

Just as if he'd gone to war.

Though the flag of our nation won't fly at half mast,

He'll stay in our hearts evermore.



Somebody killed a police officer today.

It could happen in your town and mine.

While we slept in comfort behind our locked doors,

A cop put his life on the line.



Now his ghost has a beat on a dark city street,

As he stands at each rookie's side.

A cop answered the call,

Of himself gave his all,

And part of America died...
