Stop To Remember

The men who fought with bravery.

Those who shed their blood and lost their lives,

So our country could live in liberty.

There is a day we stop and remember

The colors that we love.

The red, white and blue of freedom,

That fit our country like a glove.

White for purity of purpose,

Red for valor during battle,

Blue for justice paid to those who threaten us,

Are the gifts our Lord blessed upon our men.

There is a day we stop and remember,

That our men have not died in vain.

For after every battle is won,

Our country's standards reign.

Wave a flag,

Place a flower upon a grave,

Say a prayer of thanks on Memorial Day.

For the price of freedom was freely paid.
