Remembrance
Flags flying at half mast,
Remembering the people from our past,
On a cold Autumns day all over the land,
In sadness they gather,together they stand,
The price of freedom is what they paid,
As they rest in the ground,here they are laid.
Gratitude and thanks for the life we live now,
They gave up their lives that was their vow.
Remembering them once a year,
They fought for freedom that's why we are here,
Prayers of thanks and remembrance, ring round all over this land,
They fought off tyranny so we could unite and stand,
To those brave men and women we owe so much
