To The Moon Above
To the moon above
On mission of grand conquest
Men in lunar launch
Defining moment
In “One giant leap for mankind”
Prints in lunar dust
Stars and Stripes planted
The flag flies but does not wave
In moon’s atmosphere
In that adventure
Proud men and women served
I was among them
Soon many giant steps
Were made on terra firma
To visit again
Time has written much
Since the day of that landing
About ships in space
To the realm of stars
Will mankind rise to the task
Peace in hostile space
