Within their midst is honor
With golden wings that fly
All across our Nation
Their glory fills the sky

New year now awakens
Old year brought sad dawn
Memories now linger
With hearts that carry on

We see your spirits rising
No darkness in this ground
Your mighty souls are shining
Upon this earth so bound

Walking right beside us
We hold each other high
Guiding us with glory
Together now we fly

No ordinary people
Have walked across our souls
Glowing with magnificence
The sunrise now consoles

Today we see a spark of life
You've left in unity
Liberty and courage
Reflects us endlessly

Thank you from a nation
Whose tears on earth have wept
For all our valiant heroes
Life's monument windswept

Tears of pride an ocean
Mountain high with love
Miles and miles of gratitude
With prayers that rise above

No greater love was given
No greater path was paved
Upon the hearts of freedom
Your names in gold engraved

Liberty now standing
With flame she holds so high
Giving homage to you
We'll never say goodbye.

Wings of pure gold that reach from on high."
