Blessed are the Peacemakers

Men with one purpose

To separate themselves from the forsakers.

Blessed are the Peacemakers

Who sold their lives for a dream

To win an ever-going game.

Blessed are the Peacemakers

Sending others down to shame

And embracing it all the same.

Blessed are the Peacemakers

Leaving their loved ones behind

To achieve a treasure never to find.

Blessed are the Peacemakers

Men with one purpose

To separate themselves from the forsakers.

This piece represents the sacrifice and duties our military and its members make daily to protect us and our freedom. It is their duty to maintain peace and to protect our rights, sometimes at a cost.
