The Banner of the Brave

Verse 1:
High above the fields of freedom, where the eagle dares to soar,
Waves the banner of a nation we’ve been fighting for and more.
Born in fire, stitched in glory, through the storm and through the flame,
Every stripe a tale of courage, every star a hero’s name.

Chorus:
O say, can you see that flag on high?
Red for the blood, and blue for the sky.
White for the truth that will always remain,
Standing for justice, through sorrow and pain.
It’s the heart of the people, the soul of the land—
The banner of the brave, still proud as it stands.

Verse 2:
From the fields of revolution to the shores of Normandy,
She has flown for every soldier who would die to keep us free.
In the silence of the morning, in the thunder of the fight,
She reminds us what we’re made of—what is good, and what is right.

Chorus:
O say, can you see that flag on high?
Red for the blood, and blue for the sky.
White for the truth that will always remain,
Standing for justice, through sorrow and pain.
It’s the heart of the people, the soul of the land—
The banner of the brave, still proud as it stands.

Bridge:
Let her wave on every steeple, every schoolhouse, every shore,
For the dreams of every people who have walked through freedom’s door.
She’s more than just a fabric—she’s a promise bold and true,
A light that keeps on shining, for the red, the white, the blue.

Chorus:
O say, can you see that flag on high?
Red for the blood, and blue for the sky.
White for the truth that will always remain,
Standing for justice, through sorrow and pain.
It’s the heart of the people, the soul of the land—
The banner of the brave, still proud as it stands.

Outro:
Long may she wave, through the joy and the grave—
Our banner of the brave.
