Memorial Day

May our song rise soft and gentle,

For every one who gave it all.

May the lyrics all be whispered,

For a soldiers answered call.

Listen closely to the sorrow,

As it praises our reward.

Listen closely to our freedom,

Gently rising from each chord.

They stood in valor for our freedom,

And laid in peace beneath our flag.

Sacred names on hearts are cherished,

Etched in metal on a tag.

Endless gratitude and heartache,

For the one’s we’ve laid to rest.

Now who guard our path to Heaven,

For our Father takes the best.

All my love,
