Your Son Is Coming Homecountry as flag - small
Your son is coming home
he served his country well
and to the last
his courage held fast
in the blast of that mortar shell.

Your son is coming home
wrapped in colors of red, white and blue
for being so brave
and for the life that he gave
to him great honor is due.

Your son is coming home
a soldier in whom we take pride
for through the war
on that distant shore
he showed what his country stood for
when he died.
