Lyrics

The bugle calls us to the light

From the mists of long ago

See how the battle sabers shine

And the shadows the flags all throw

For the glory

For a land forever free

For the last, best hope of mankind

For the better part of me

For the glory

For the words we hold so dear

Let us give the last full measure

Gathered here

For the glory

The time to stand has come at last

Let the drums start the long, long roll

The bridge is burned, the die is cast

To His grace I commend my soul

For the glory

For the Dixie that I know

For the way of life we cherish

Let us die or let us go

For the glory

For the home we hold so dear

Let us give the last full measure

Gathered here

For the glory

Sleep in my arms now

For your pain is past

Sleep, for you have traveled far

Now you are home at last

Go as you came here

Time to say goodbye

Light, soft as a melody

Safe in a lullaby

The fields are green

The rivers are unclean

And oh, so far from here

Rest for a while now

For your work is done

Rest here in my waiting arms

Now that your race is run

For the glory

For the men who've gone before

For the men who will come after

We will wage this bloody war

For the glory

For the truth we hold so dear

Let us give us the last full measure

Gathered here

For the glory
