2006

‘Twas the night before Christmas in a town far away

Where our armed forces are on duty – night and day

Who think of their parents, children, husbands and wives

But fervently pray that they will survive

                                               They wish to be home to see the joy

                                                On the faces of all the good girls and boys

                                                To hug and kiss ones they hold so dear

                                                Who support and love them all through the year

When suddenly the stars in the sky turned so bright

It seemed like morning, not almost midnight

They peered from their tents and saw with surprise

It didn’t seem possible but before their eyes

                                    Stood a fat, jolly elf not in his red and white suit

                             But dressed in camouflage with issued combat boots

                                           His reindeer had come and so had the elves

                                      To thank these brave men and women themselves

They brought no toys, no stockings, nor games

No presents, no cookies or striped candy canes

They had brought only thanks to our troops far and wide

For keeping us safe, though some lived and some died

                        These brave servicemen deserve more than we ever could give

                                 They protect us, our country and serve… so we live

                                     Santa saluted them all and thanked them again

                                      For what they are doing for their countrymen

The elves stood in awe of these armed forces so true

And thanked them also for all that they do

Santa returned to his sleigh with wishes that all turmoil cease

So that people everywhere will have love, hope and peace

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and God Bless America
