WE WILL REMEMBER
-----------

We will remember in the sunset glory

The life you gave which never
shall grow old.

That on our Country's page another
story

Of selfless courage might be writ
in gold

We will remember when the morning
breaketh

That your example calls us to be
brave

Tells us the he alone from sleeping
waketh

Who in God's strength goes forth
the world to save
