In the wake of distant stars, a vessel proudly sails,
A symbol of ideals strong, where liberty prevails.
USS Liberty, a name that echoes through the years,
A tale of courage, sacrifice, amid both smiles and tears.
Born in days of war and strife, the Victory ship took form,
A beacon of resilience, through tempest and through storm.
1942, a fateful day, the torpedo found its mark,
Yet from the depths of history, the spirit left its spark.
Then came a time of change and growth, the Six-Day War did rise,
USS Liberty, the research ship, beneath the open skies.
In '67, the world did watch, as controversy spun,
A tragedy that questioned, what lay beneath the sun.
Debate of intent or accident, the air was thick with doubt,
34 lives lost, and more wounded, hearts in sorrow's bout.
A diplomatic dance ensued, a nation's pain held high,
Yet from the shadows of the past, a phoenix learned to fly.
Beyond the stories intertwined, beyond the tangled strife,
The essence of USS Liberty breathes a larger life.
It stands for more than just a ship, it stands for dreams anew,
A vision of a nation bold, where liberty shines through.
This song, a tribute to the dream, where freedom leads the way,
Where courage walks with open hearts, to face the dawn's first ray.
No matter where the journey leads, through skies or oceans wide,
USS Liberty, the beacon stands, in freedom's constant stride.
So let us sing with voices strong, of hope and gratitude,
For those who serve with honor bright, in times of certitude.
With liberty as compass guide, and stars to light the night,
USS Liberty, a symbol true, forever burning bright.
Be the first person to like this.

Our liberty is under serious attack, by our not-elected fake regime.
