Red, white, and blue bear meanings

Red, white, and blue bear meanings of many hues;
A lifting of the heart knowing the cost,
Security gained through those the risk would choose,
Freedom won through life or fortune lost.

A lifting of the heart, knowing the cost,
So, we in honor stand, hand on our heart,
Freedom won through life or fortune lost,
Salute, in awe, in a small way, taking part

So, we in honor stand, hand on our heart,
Security gained through those the risk would choose;
Salute, in awe, in a small way, taking part,
Red, white, and blue bear meanings of many hues.

Colors portraying ideals we would not lose,
Red, shed blood, white, purity of aims embossed,
Security gained through those the risk would choose,
Freedom won, though life or fortune lost.

Red of shed blood, white stars on blue field tossed,
Official building, street, or festival proclaim,
Announcing gain, and accepting what is lost,
Pledging loyalty to what we proudly claim.

With a marching beat and rousing strains, we name
With honor, those whose stand for her would choose,
The guidance of our Maker, we would claim.
Red, white, and blue bear meanings, many hues.
