and so it has been told,
Some gave their lives for me and you.
We have been blessed with freedom, very true!
Many have heard the call, and said their last goodbyes.
Thirteen precise flag folds, honoring you!
Stars facing up for heavens view.
What a gift we all hold,
Many thanks to you.
Hear foretold,
Stand bold...
