Amen to Taps, there are no official words to the music but here are some of the more popular verses: Always brings tears to my eyes.
Day is done, gone the sun,
From the hills, from the lake,
From the sky.
All is well, safely rest,
God is nigh.
Go to sleep, peaceful sleep,
May the soldier or sailor,
God keep.
On the land or the deep,
Safe in sleep.
Love, good night, Must thou go,
When the day, And the night
Need thee so?
All is well. Speedeth all
To their rest.
Fades the light; And afar
Goeth day, And the stars
Shineth bright,
Fare thee well; Day has gone,
Night is on.
Thanks and praise, For our days,
'Neath the sun, Neath the stars,
'Neath the sky,
As we go, This we know,
God is nigh.

Pay What We Owe
War is hell
So many pay
Freedom's price
In death they lay
But to bend our knees
To evil's threat
Would be far worse
Than to pay that debt
So bring the glory
Bring the gore
Cause we know damn well
What we're fighting for
Come what may
We'll win this fight
As our banners fly
By the dawn's sweet light
Our foe will bow
And not our side
Though the awful cost
Will make us cry
But when it's o'er
Our heads held high
We'll know they did
Our vict'ry buy
So honor them
And praise their names
The least they've earned
Is a heroes fame
