Our Flag

OUR FLAG Seven stripes of crimson red Stand for all the blood that's been shed Six stripes of shining white Denote the purity that leads the fight Fifty stars on a field of blue Represent each state both old and new This flag is flown in a solemn manner We fondly call it the Star Spangled Banner Stars and stripes tell the story Of our flag, known as Old Glory Wherever we go to defend our nation The Red, White, and Blue cause quite a sensation The most noted flag the world has known The greatest flag ever flown Fills our heart with patriotic pride As other thoughts are set aside So when you see our flag unfurled The greatest flag in all the world Stand tall and proud for all to see It's the flag of freedom for you and me Curtis Moorman 3 July 2011
