The citizen

I am the citizen

And this is my voice

And I speaks from my heart

And my words are true

Honoring the badge

And the ones in blue

My words capture

The essence of life

And it whispers to the ones

Who stands for what’s right

Fighting crime

Every single day

In putting the criminals

And crooks away

You wear the badge

And that is your call

A blessing from God

And serving the law

God protectors

Here on earth

Saving citizens

From the evil that lurks

Stepping into

The arena of life

Trying to get people

To do what’s right

Only to be treated

Less than trash

Because of uniform

And the badge

And when you have

To answer the 911 call

Rushing into harm’s way

And giving your all

And the courage

You wear must stand tall

So our nation’s pride

Will never fall

And the sights you see

Will take your breath away

From the horrors of the

World that happens every day

And when you have to look

Into the eyes of a scared Child’s face

From someone who

Has been through hurt and disgrace

And an officer’s love

Can restore their faith

Because the kindness you share

Will bring smile to their face

Giving them hope from

Your touch of love

And this is a gift

From the heavens above

And the badge you wear

Is your shield of faith

And stands for honor

Peace and grace

And upholding

The law for every race

Putting your life

On the line without a thought

And this is a skill

That can’t be thought

Time after time

Responding to the call

Without a thank you

For risking your life for all

In a world where hate

Stands at the gate

Trying to destroy

The officer’s fate

But hold your head up high

You men and women in blue

For God’s love

Will take care of you

You see you hold the key

To saving a life

And upholding the law

And doing what’s right

Patrolling the street

Every night and day

So the Robbers and crooks

Don’t have their way

Yes the badge you wear

Is a blessing from God

So wear it with honor

Dignity and pride

Being a cop

Is dangerous today

Working any call

Can get you blowed away

So kiss your love ones

Before you leave home

For the hate in this world

Won’t leave you alone

For the courage you wear

Puts the bad guy to shame

And hate will do anything

To destroy your name

So stand your ground

And serve with pride

Risking your life

To keep dreams alive

And some people will

Argue fuss and fight

Saying that you’re not

Doing your job right

But you know the world

As well as I

And devil will always tell a lie

But hold your head up

And stand with pride

For this citizen thanks you

For risking your lives

And every now and then

There’s one or two

Who just won’t do

What there trained to do

And disrespects

The badge and the blue

And taking advantage

Of their authority and the job they do

And the next thing you know

You’re on the news

Sing that old

Why me blues

For not doing

What you took an oath to do

And my prayer is that this poem will

Deliver you

But you must remember

That Jesus is King

And the angles in heaven

See everything

So be professional and kind

You men and women in blue

So God can continue

To watch over your life

Truly you are

The joy of his heavenly eyes

Because you wear the badge

And the blue

And the citizens of world

Are depending on you

But we personally

Want to thank you so very much

Because you just been blessed

With the citizens touch

And we truly honor

The badge you wear

For our love for Law Enforcement

Feels the air

For I am the citizen

And my words are true

And I truly have much Love for you
