After giving away an estimated 20,000 free copies of the sheet music to "Thank You, Soldiers", it is
very bittersweet to announce that the offer has expired, due to an exciting publishing contract
with Alfred Publishers, the largest educational publisher in the world!

THANK YOU, SOLDIERS lyrics:
c2009 Michael and Angela Souders (BMI/CCLI)
When I lay my head down every night
And go to sleep in peace,
I can stay there knowing all is well
While you’re standing on your feet.
Keeping watch, protecting shore to shore
In the air and oceans, too.
Defending freedom at all cost,
For the red, white and the blue.
CHORUS
Thank you, Oh thank you
Men and women, brave and strong,
To those who served so gallantly
We sing this grateful song.
To the soldiers who have traveled on
to countries far and near
In peace and war you paid the price
For the cause you hold so dear.
That we may wake each morning bright
And know that freedom rings
Because of your great sacrifice
Your country joins to sing…
CHORUS
(CHRISTMAS VERSE 3)
With the Christmas season drawing nigh,
And our loved ones gathering,
The gift you give is magnified
through the absence that it brings.
So peace on earth, good will t’ward men,
Is the hope to which we cling.
But it comes through your brave sacrifice,
As the bells of Christmas ring…
