 Penniluck's legacy

A Land That`s Free.


Fighting for the right to be
Fighting hard to set them free
Free from tyranny and pain
A chance to start their lives again.

The price is high as lives are lost
Right - just never counts the cost.
Marching on - blind fear ignore
Death knocks hard upon their door.

Each one brave - head held high
Knowing they may have to die.
Yet they will stand tall and fight
Knowing that they fight for right.

Bullies in the end must pay
Even if they have their day.
Good will always overcome
Evil done by wicked scum.

So to all soldiers over there
We will remember you in prayer.
God is with you - every man
Please kick hell out of Saddam.

Come back safe - a job well done
Back to see your Dad and Mum.
Leave behind a land that`s free
Look back and say - now that was me.
