I’m so very proud of this song “Not For Glory” written to honor our military and first responders, and the young man who sings it, Taylor Lewis.
For everyone who knows the meaning of service, this song is for you.
Lots of love and healing prayers going out this Memorial Day weekend.
Love & Light,
Amanda

Not for Glory
words and music Pete Garfinkel & Amanda Colleen Williams
They don’t do it for fame
They don’t do it for money
When they put down their name to serve God and country
It a hell of a job
And once you’re in
You’re never going to be the same
Not for glory
It’s a sacrifice
For all of us
For all of our lives
Safe at home
We read their stories
Not for glory
The ones back at home
Well they don’t understand
What happens at work, and they never can
Cause it might be a sin
To share secrets with someone
Who doesn’t know
Not for glory
It’s a sacrifice
For all of us
For all of our lives
Safe at home
We read their stories
Not for glory
They’d do it all again
That’s just who they are
They don’t mind pain
If you don’t mind the scars
Not for glory
It’s a sacrifice
For all of us
For all of our lives
Safe at home
We read their stories
Not for glory
