LYRICS

Verse 1:
We remember those departed, this Memorial Day.
Men who stood tall with pride, the American way.
When 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.

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.

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 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.

Tag:
True heroes we honor, our duty on this day.
