Even under this bright sky
rousing anthems of the brass
bands
Applause of this community
as our veterans marched by
Hearing their whispers
those who died for our
freedoms
Their prayers that we would
be faithful
to the beliefs we share inside
Knowing they are watching
sensing them here within
this congregation
Watching down over us
as they have always done
