We Shall Remember
Off to the battlefield many courageous soldiers went
Changing the course of history, a milestone event
Fighting for freedom at a very deadly cost
Eight and a half million lives would be sadly lost
Devastation touched the world far and wide
Horrors from the Great War no one could hide
Poppies grew in abundance where fallen men laid
We are internally grateful for sacrifices that were made
