"We Expect Them To Be"
It’s falling all around them and still they carry on
It’s a fear I can’t imagine that they walk through everyday
While we sit at home with family and take for granted all the rest
Its there job I hear the people say,
We expect from them nothing less
Then to keep us safe keep us free
Be the hero’s we expect them to be
It’s not what I see those words those people say
I’ve seen the heart the courage that it takes
To protect this world from the coldness and dark
Could you run in when the rest are racing out
To save a life you haven’t met
Would you make the sacrifice, your love, your kids your home, your wife?
To protect those who expect you to be there
When you know it may be the ultimate price
I think that badge they wear must get very heavy
When it carries all the burdens
The hatred and the sadness of this world that they see
How often do they hear the praise they deserve?
I am safe, I am free, and I have hope because of everything you do,
Thank God for the Hero’s we expect them to be!!
