Within the book of heroes
These names shall all stand out
With love for God and Country
For them there was no doubt

For courage born inside them
Was paved along their way
Each one through life we honor
Within our hearts will stay

They walk the fields of glory
In finest of God's glow
Upon our lives a shadow
Forever we shall know

For courage in an instant
Will live on endlessly
For every solider marching
Their steps heard constantly

To God and Man the glory
Of every shining Light
That brought to us a victory
With most courageous fight

Their names in life be written
For heroes came our way
Upon the soil of foreign fields
Their thunder heard each day.
