ALL STUDENTS:
Day by day, there is a mighty way
On to defend and save honor and glory.
Land or air, oceans or anywhere,
Giving your life to share freedom’s story.
So now, we dedicate our days
Showing our thanks & praise for all you do
We stand, singing a noble song
To all the brave and strong, we honor you.
Sacrifice, done without thinking twice.
Willing to pay the price when it was needed.
Hear the words you have rightly earned:
“Welcome home”, deserved. “Job completed.”
So now, we dedicate our days
Showing our thanks & praise for all you do
We stand, singing a noble song
To all the brave and strong, we honor you.

04 God Bless the U.S.A. (Low With Ba.m4aPerformance Version
Group 1:
In history I’ve learned about
So many countries where
They lost their right to freedom,
A blessing you and I all share.
I thank my lucky stars
To be living here today,
‘Cause the flag still stands for freedom,
And they can’t take that away.
ALL STUDENTS:
And I’m proud to be an American
Where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I’ll gladly stand up next to you
And defend her still today
‘Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land,
God Bless the USA
Group 2:
From the lakes of Minnesota
To the hills of Tennessee,
Across the plains of Texas,
From sea to shining sea,
From Detroit down to Houston,
And New York to L.A.,
There is pride in every American heart,
And it’s time to stand and say,
REPEAT CHORUS 2 x - Slow @ END
ARMED FORCES MEDLEY
ARMED FORCES LOW KEY 6 BRANCHES.mp31. Army
Over hill, over dale,
We will hit the dusty trail,
And those caissons go rolling along.
In and out, hear them shout, Counter marching all about,
And those caissons go rolling along.
For it’s Hi, Hi, Hee, in the field artillery!
Count out your numbers loud and strong! 2-3-4 HUT 2-3
And where e’er you go, You will always know,
That those caissons go rolling along.
2. Navy
Anchors away, my boys,
Anchors away.
Farewell to college joys,
We sail at break of day (day, day, day).
Through our last night on shore,
Hail to the foam.
Until we meet once more,
Here’s wishing you a happy voyage home.
3. Coast Guard
We’re always ready for the call,
We place our trust in Thee.
Through howling gale and shot and shell,
To win our victory.
“Semper Paratus” is our guide,
our pledge our motto, too.
We’re always ready, do or die!
Aye! Coast Guard we fight for you!
4. Air Force
Off we go into the wild, blue yonder,
climbing high into the sun.
Here they come zooming to meet our thunder,
“At ‘em boys, give ‘er the gun!”
“Give ‘er the GUN!”
Down we dive, spouting our flame from under,
off with one terrible roar!
We live in fame or go down in flame. “Hey!”
For nothing’ll stop the U.S. Air Force.
5. Marines
From the Halls of Montezuma
To the shores of Tripoli
We will fight our country’s battles,
In the air, on land and sea.
First we fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean.
We are proud to claim the title
Of United States Marines.
6. Space Force
We're the mighty watchful eye,
Guardians beyond the blue.
The invisible front line,
Warfighters brave and true.
Boldly reaching into space,
There's no limit to our sky.
Standing guard both night and day,
We're the Space Force from on high!
