For those who have died – v2

Honoring those who have served
who are serving for us now
in this standing for those
for those who have died

Standing in solemn prayer,
our hearts in our throats
thinking of those
who paid the cost for us

For those who have died
a day set aside
to stop us, to pause
to remember the cost

Standing in solemn prayer,
our hearts in our throats
remembering those
who paid the cost for us
