Rising the Flag

I rise High the Flag
High for all to see
Sounds of flap for all ear
Blowing winds to all souls

This Flag I hold
Held high for Mankind
Here, the rod it bears
There, the hight it reaches

Rising the Flag
Weaves of Joy sparts the heart
Rising the Flag
Rising it all
Sight, Mind and Heart
All up for the wind
All up for humanity

Beneath the Raising Flag
I stand alone
