Shadows fall upon us With glitter and
with gleam For Veterans united Upon the
earth esteemed
Each one our
inspiration For love that they did
give With honor to their country They
fought so we could live
Within the fields
of battle Upon the foreign shores Each
Veteran remembered With honor and much
more
Such glory and such honor Within
each war they fought Pride we feel within our
hearts Such sadness for those
lost
Flag they held still flying With
dignity so blest Our heroes of the many
wars Have given all their best
Bow
your heads in silence For those who are not
here Remember all those living Their
courage we revere.
