MERRY CHRISTMAS FIREFIGHTERS

MY HEART IS OVERWHELMED BY YOUR STRENGTH
WHILE YOU DO THE WORK YOU DO,
AS YOU TRIED SO HARD TO SAVE A LIFE
AND GAVE YOUR BEST EFFORT FROM YOU

ONLY GOD KNOWS THE PAIN YOU SUFFER
AND THE AGONY YOU WENT THROUGH
YOUR HEARTS MAY NEVER EVER HEAL
BUT WE HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN YOU

WE ARE PROUD TO CALL YOU FIREFIGHTERS
YOU RISK YOUR LIFE FOR ALL,
AND YOU ARE THERE TO MAKE THAT MOVE
WHEN YOU RECIEVE YOUR CALL....

THERE ARE NO WORDS THAT WE CAN SAY
TO COMFORT YOU AT THIS TIME,
BUT WE SEND YOU THIS WRITTEN BOUQUET
AND SEND OUR LOVE COMBINED.

I FEEL THERE WERE MANY TEARS YOU'VE SHED
WHILE TRYING HARD TO DO YOUR TASK,
NONE OF YOU WILL EVER FORGET
THAT DAY NOW IN THE PAST.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL YOU FIREFIGHTERS
AND WE WANT YOU TO KNOW TODAY,
THAT WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS,
AND GOD'S BLESSINGS ARE SENT YOUR WAY,
