FOR MARY'S FALLEN SOLDIER

FALLEN SOLDIERS, ONE AND ALL
ANSWERED THE BECKON,
SALUTED THE CALL
FALLEN SOLDIERS
WHO NEVER COME HOME
ARE FOREVER ON WATCH
FOREVER ON ROAM
THOUGH MISSING IN BODY
THEIR SPIRITS STAY TRUE
A HEAVENLY COMFORT
FOR ME AND FOR YOU
DEATH CANNOT STOP THEM
OR DEMINISH THEIR MIGHT
WE FEEL THEM STILL WITH US
BY DAY AND BY NIGHT
SO MOURN IF YOU HAVE TO
SHED HEALING TEARS
THEN REMEMBER THEIR HONOR
WILL OUTLAST THE YEARS
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
THE ESSENCE OF SELF-LESS LOVE
FALLEN SOLDIERS
FOREVER PROTECTING
THOUGH NOW FROM ABOVE...
