Memorial Day
Verse 1
We remember those departed, this Memorial Day:
Men who stood tall with pride, the American way:
Duty beckoned, they met the call;
All gave some...some gave all.
Verse 2
Remember those brave warriors, place flags and be sure to pray;
Men who fought for our freedom, shed blood for a brighter day;
When duty beckoned; always stood tall.
All gave some...some gave all.
Chorus
America, the beautiful, may your flag always wave;
Our country they protected, our future they helped save;
True heroes, we honor, our duty on this day;
Remember all the fallen, on this Memorial Day.
Verse 3
Remember, read the markers, their memory won't fade away;
Men who lived, with true honor, a debt we can't repay;
When duty beckoned, they did not stall;
All gave some...but some gave all.
Verse 4
For God so loved the world, He gave His only Son;
One who hung on a cross, who said,”Thy will be done.”
When duty beckoned, Jesus answered the call.
All gave some, but Jesus gave it all.
Repeat Chorus

True heroes, we honor, our duty on this day;
