Moment of Serenity / Farewell Lyrics


A moment of serenity for the fallen

For all of those who answered the calling

A moment of serenity for those whose voice was heard

From their cause they

were never deterred

A moment of serenity

for those who never feared

Even though they knew

their end was near

A moment of serenity

from the cradle to the grave

We'll never forget

the sacrifices you made

Sleep now peacefully, your quest is done

Only to be picked up

by your daughters and sons

Carry on the legacy, children of today

Tomorrow you're our soliders

leading the way

We must move on,

start planting our seeds

We must be willing

to go through the extremes

We must show respect

for those before our time

For their wisdom and their courage has become our pride

Farewell to you my friend

Come one day we will meet again

Your loyalty shined

and your honor was true

Now I'll carry the sword for you

Farewell to you my brother

From the shadows will emerge another

The road may be rough

and the journey may be long

But we promise you, Erik:

The fight will go on!

Listen to a tale of a brother lost

If I could change the past

I'd do it at any cost

Memories of yesterday still deep inside

The spirit of our days has never died

I still remember that fateful day

when the tears fell like rain

Nothing could describe the anguish;

nothing could describe the pain

A brother with whom I had grown up

was taken away from me

One of the boys, one of The Glory--

now just a memory

The fight goes on!

Farewell to you my friend

Come one day we will meet again

Your loyalty shined

and your honor was true

Now I'll carry the sword for you

Farewell to you my brother

From the shadows will emerge another

The road may be rough and the journey may be long

But we promise you, Ian:

The fight will go on!

You were the voice of the people

You were the voice of defiance

With songs about blood and honor

you formed a worldwide alliance

Your words of wisdom burned deep,

they burned deep down inside

Your were the prophet,

you were the voice

that gave us our pride

When the heavens called your number

it was so hard to let you go

You were a man ahead of your time

And we want you to know:

The fight goes on!
