REMEMBER...
Remember, Remember, Remember...
Our Country's Solemn Charge
When Her People tremble in wonder
While Her Flag is lowered and somber
"Remember the Alamo!" was Her cry
Over many who fought and died
"Remember the Alamo!" was the prayer near and far
As Texas bled 'neath one Lone Star
"Remember Pearl Harbor!" was Her plea
In Waking the Giant from its sleep
"Remember Pearl Harbor" from sea to sea
A Day which ever lives in Infamy
"Never Forget 9/11!" she warned
The fallen towers and families torn
A Nation changed, a Nation at War
Never Forget what we're in this for
Then a decade later, the President said
The one we pursued, finally is dead
Remember 9/11, Remember those lost
Our flag waves Red to remind US the cost.
