Their
battles fought, their lives they lived, and now our
fathers sleep,
And though their spirits take to flight, their
memories linger here,
With souls now free to live in peace, their battles
rage forever.
In
stories told, in books we read, their past will live
forever,
So we can know what went before, 'ere with them we do
sleep,
And in this way, share legacy with those who still
are here.
We help
our children learn the past, of things before and
here,
And pray that they will not forget, and memories keep
forever,
Then pass them down to those who come, before they
too will sleep.
And when
all things are said and done, we too sleep here
forever.
