We Remember (Live from Sam’s Place at the Ryman)
[Verse 1]
This is for the ones who heard the fight for freedom calling
And 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
[Verse 2]
And this is for the ones whose orders took them to the front lines
For the ones who fell and never made it home
And for the ones who came back broken
With memories too hard to be spoken
This is for you
[Chorus]
We remember, we remember
And 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
'Cause we remember
[Verse 3]
And this is for the ones whose war is wondering and waiting
And 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
[Chorus]
We remember, we remember
We are thankful and we are grateful
'Cause we know freedom isn't free
Oh we remember, yes we remember
The gift you gave, the price you paid
Is not in vain and it will never be forgotten
[Bridge]
And we remember
Every time we chase our dreams
Or pray out loud or 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
[Chorus]
We remember, we remember
And 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
[Outro]
'Cause we remember
Oh we remember
