God Bless Them All

On a wind sheltered hillside, Where the white crosses stand, Ranks and files draw attention, Heroes honoured our land They bleed out in the moonlight, To her mystical glow, With the turning of twilight, So their shadows shall grow, Say a prayer for the fallen As you wake every dawn May they never be forgotten God bless each and every one As the years mark their passing, Night skies paint silver stars, Rusted nails bleed in silence, Tracing wounds from their scars, Blood red poppies weave carpets, Where those purple hearts rest As we pray to the Heavens, That their lost souls be blessed. Say a prayer for the fallen As you wake every dawn May they never be forgotten God bless each and every one Musical bridge Say a prayer for the fallen As you wake every dawn May they never be forgotten God bless each and every one
