Cost of Freedom (21 Guns) Lyrics by Mallary Hope
Mallary Hope Lyrics
Oh the lights of a small town
Shine a little brighter tonight
The candle light flickers inside the window
To honor the sacrifice
He came home in a casket
That's what the local news said
Mama buries her baby boy while
I stay safe in my bed
And the sound of 21 guns
Echoed up to the sky
The loss of a husband, a father, a son
Makes the whole world cry
And the angels sing
While we pray for peace
'Cause the cost of freedom
Is the sound of 21 guns
Now the church bells are ringing
Through this quiet town
And the choir is singing
His favorite hymn
And his daddy said
He didn't do this for the glory
And he sure didn't do it for the fame
He died fighting for something
He believed in and
We will remember his name
And the sound of 21 guns
Echoed up to the sky
The loss of a husband, a father, a son
Makes the whole world cry
And the angels sing
While we pray for peace
'Cause the cost of freedom
Is the sound of 21 guns
21 guns...
And the angels sing
While we pray for peace
'Cause the cost of freedom
Is the sound of 21 guns
Ohhhhhh
21, 21 guns
(drum refrain)
[Thanks to Steph for lyrics]
