Who gives me the right to write what I write
Who answers a country in need
Who are the ones that keep watch overnight
Who are these soldiers indeed
Who jumps at the chance to defend how we live
Who’s first to charge into the fray
Who's giving their all until no more to give
Who’s risking their life for a way
Who's caring for those that return without limb
Who wins when the budget reverts
Whose bills go unpaid as their benefits trim
Who's getting what congress diverts
Who marches on when it could be the end
Whose family sustains them with love
Who’s putting themselves in the way for a friend
Whose God sees it all from above
