From the recording THE BURNING TIMES
The title of the song says it all. We should always remember the fallen. They were grandfathers, fathers, brothers, sons and grandsons and the equivalent in women also during the Burning Times.

VERSE 1
C F C
IN PAST DAYS – SO LONG AGO,
G F
WE FOUGHT BRAVELY- AGAINST THE FOE,

BATTLES WON – AND BATTLES LOST,

FREEDOM ALWAYS – THE NOBLE CAUSE.
CHORUS

REMEMBER THEM - WHO FELL

THOSE WHO ANSW-ERED THE CALL

WE MUST STRIVE TO WIN THE DAY,
G C
NOT WITH THE SWORD – BUT WITH OUR WORDS.
VERSE 2
THE BURNING TIMES - WHEN YOUNG AND OLD,
PAID THE PRICE – OF COURAGE BOLD,
MANY SLAIN – AND MANY LOST,
MANY EXILED – ON DISTANT SHORES,
CHORUS
REMEMBER THEM - WHO FELL
THOSE WHO ANSW-ERED THE CALL
WE MUST STRIVE TO WIN THE DAY,
NOT WITH THE SWORD – BUT WITH OUR WORDS.
VERSE 3
NOW WE LIVE – IN MODERN TIMES,
SO LONG SINCE – THE BURNING TIMES,
YET IN OUR HEARTS – THE WILL REMAINS,
THE RIGHT TO BE – A NATION AGAIN.
CHORUS
REMEMBER THEM - WHO FELL
THOSE WHO ANSWERED THE CALL
WE MUST STRIVE TO WIN THE DAY,
NOT WITH THE SWORD – BUT WITH OUR WORDS.
