Our Fallen Soldiers country as flag
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
