Hit Your Knees and Pray |
 |
|
The swords are drawn
all across the world
... and darkness owns the dawn.
Stand again my Brothers
and salute the young
who go forth
so very far from home
to protect
and defend
the promise of Liberty!
Stand once more
for them... As young and strong as we once were.
Stand!
as never before my friends. Stand tall!
May God have mercy upon us,
and may freedom ring
the grand old bell of liberty
again
... and again
Forever! |
