A HERO’S HEAVEN
There is a place called Hero’s Heaven
Only the bravest get to see
Reserved for those who gave their lives
For love of liberty
A special place of respect and honor
For those who paid the price
Who gave their lives to preserve our freedom
The greatest sacrifice
We salute you brave and gallant soldiers
For the sacrifice you made
The love you showed for God and Country
And for the selfish way you paid
Your sacrifice has given meaning
To this truth we hold dear
Our freedom is a sacred birthright
To defend and to revere
To you we owe this highest honor
For your love and dedication
No greater love could any show
Than you who died for our nation
For you there is a Hero’s Heaven
Only the bravest get to see
In the hearts and minds of a grateful nation
Who preserve your memory
IN HONOR OF OUR VIETNAM VETERANS
