To Give a Gift to You…

Speak the Names, Raised on Brass Shields

The Young and Old, laying in Red Fields.

Speak the Names, Carved into Stone

Of All those who, Nev-er came Home.

Speak the Names, When the Sun shines Bright

The Ones who won, Your Prize, With Fight…

Speak the Names, when the Moon is a glow

The ones Lost and Gone, to Where? Only God might know.

Speak the Names, the Ones you’ve not met

From when Independence, Was just a bet…

Speak the Names, The Ones in the Sea,

Who went Down Down Down, so Sigh-lent-ly .

Speak the Names, that Landed on a Beach,

And Found out Firsthand, Sometimes you can’t just Preach.

Speak the Names, The Ones Overhead,

Who must fly forever, while We all sleep In this Bed…

.

.

.

Speak the Names, it’s the LEAST You can Do,

Names now Long Gone…

To Give a Gift to You.
