The Journey Of Our Flag |
 |
|
I dreamed I saw them marching,
Along the dusty road.
Their backs were slumped in tiredness
As they carried
their heavy load.
But then I saw a young man
And
his face displayed a smile
For he proudly raised that
flag
While marching another mile.
I dreamed I saw
ships sailing,
On waters far away.
The vessels they
were warships
They were fighting on this day.
But
then I saw a sailor,
And on his face a smile
For he
proudly raised that flag
While sailing the many miles.
I dreamed I saw a jungle
And trees all around.
The
air hot and sticky
Gunfire, the only sound
But
then I saw a soldier
And on his face a smile
For he
proudly waved that flag
Along the jungles aisles
I
dreamed I saw them flying
Over deserts far away.
They
came to fight the battle
On this very day.
But
then I saw her clearly,
As she flew from up above.
That flag was there and waving,
That flag, the one I
love. |
