Today is Memorial Day, the day Americans set aside for remembering the people who died while serving in the country’s armed forces.
From my viewpoint, it is a day to put aside your political, religious and other views and just say a prayer of thanks for those who have served and died protecting the freedoms we enjoy. Say a prayer of comfort and strength for those families that have lost their loved one(s) and say a prayer asking for safety for all those men and women currently serving.
I don’t really have any patriotic songs on my IPod but I thought that Vince Gill’s “Go Rest High on the Mountain” would be a good choice for today.
How about “Where were you?” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPHnadJ-0hE by Alan Jackson?
They are probably good choices – just not a lot of country on my IPod.
