As reverent prayers
have all been said
Hearts are gathered
in their stead
Offering our
heartfelt praise
For every Soldier's
courage raised
No fear of death for
freedom's reign
So constant is their
heart's refrain
For God and Country
and all I love
I give the soul that
you speak of
These words repeated
through the years
With rivers filled
with all our tears
We bow our heads
with grateful pause
Our heroes cast a
shadow tall
Each day they march
with heads held high
And we all bow as
they walk by
For we have learned
in many ways
No greater love in
life displays
Courage born of
brave and might
In every battle
through each fight
Their sacrifice so
great to give
For Freedom's Light
to always live.
