Who is the Invisible Army?
They are “the mothers, fathers, spouses, children, siblings, friends and loved ones who all share one thing in common. A family member or friend who is serving with Canada’s military. Both at home and around the globe”
Coordinated through the Military Family Resources Centre, I was fortunate to have been asked by one of their tireless volunteers, Al McRobb, to write a song paying tribute to the families of our soldiers. Thus “United We Stand, Divided We’ll Never Fall” was born. Read more on Al’s blog: http://bit.ly/8YCtI9
I also had the great pleasure of meeting Charlene McInnis, the PEI Military Family Support Coordinator – so dedicated and so energetic! She, along with the rest of the staff & volunteers at MFRC, are working very hard to raise awareness throughout the country for the Invisible Army. I am proud to be a part of this wonderful cause & help in any way I can to help recognize the efforts for families & communities who support our Canadian soldiers. I have included my new song, “United We Stand (Divided We’ll Never Fall”, on my next album due out by Christmas 2010 called “I Wish I Had Wings”.

UNITED WE STAND (DIVIDED WE’LL NEVER FALL

VERSE
You said that you’d always believe in me
And understand why I have to go
I told you how strong I needed you to be
More than you’ll ever know
Pre-CHORUS
I’m ready to fight for what’s right
With honour and dignity
I know I can make it through the darkest night
As long as you walk with me
CHORUS
For united we stand, divided we’ll never fall
As long as you’re here by my side
I know that you understand why I answered the call
It’s a matter of duty & pride
So thank you for loving me, who’s loving you
VERSE
We’re fighting for freedom and justice for all
Each of us in our own way
Together, united & standing tall
With love in our hearts we pray
Pre-CHORUS
That no matter how much we have to sacrifice
And do what we have to do
We are both willing to pay that price
Because of what we hold true
CHORUS
