Our Fallen Soldiers |
 |
|
I stand in awe and reverence
As I see memorialized
All those brave young soldiers
Who fought and lost their
lives
They died for home and country
For freedom
isn't free
The cost is great and precious
That price
for liberty
They gave their lives with honor
We
know, for we were there
We fought with them side by side
Of their bravery, we're aware
We saw our fellow
soldiers fall
We held them in our arms
And prayed that
God would save them
Through hellish wars alarms
We
realize God did save them
For He sent his only begotten
Son
Christ paid the ultimate price for freedom
He died
and we all won
Because of his great sacrifice
We
all will live again
Our bodies will be whole once more
And perfect down to each limb
All these great men and
women
Will come forth on resurrection day
They'll be
clothed in light and glory
For their lives they
selflessly gave away |
