Thine Eyes have seen the glory

Thine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the lord
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored
He hath loosed the fateful lightening of his terrible swift sword
His truth is marching on.

In the beauty of the lillies christ was born across the sea
With a glory in his bosom that transfigures you and me
As he died to make men holy, let us die to make men free
While god is marching on.

I won't be here tommorrow, so i wanted to start a post wishing a happy memorial day to all especially those DT'ers that served or are serving in the armed forces. Freedom is not free and many brave men and woman have laid down their lives in service to this country.

I think the Battle Hymn of the republic is one of the greatest patriotic songs ever written. So, tommorrow as we go about our cookouts, our parties, and our lives; let us think upon the men and woman who are serving the country now and those that have served in the past, some giving all; for this great country we live in. Thank veterans, I appreciate your service.

Steve, if i put this in the wrong place, i apologize. I just was not totally sure where it belonged.

Please take a minute and keep all the veterans, past and present, in our thoughts on Monday-Memorial Day!

Best wishes to those with us and gone.

Never talk politics on here, but we certainly owe our veterans a debt of gratitude.

God Bless our military, past, present, and future.

I took this shot at the Pro Football Hall of Fame last week. Really cool tribute to him. They also had his Army uniform as well. Someone who chose Country over self. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Yep, thank you to the troops. Without them, this country is nothing. Come back home safe...
