Memorial Day. We Remember: The Mansions of the Lord.

Video saluting our troops that paid the Ultimate Sacrifice to keep our country free. Background music is sung by United States Military Academy Glee Club. Written for the Film We Were Soldiers in 2002 by Randall Wallace. It is set to music by Nick Glennie-Smith. The hymn also served as the recessional in the 2004 funeral of President Ronald Reagan. The text consists of three short stanzas that dwell not on war and death, but on the eternal peace of Heaven--the "Mansions of the Lord"--to which a fallen soldier (or sailor or airman) is commended by his comrades, who promise to stand guard and remember them always. The hymn reminds us that in that blessed place there is no more war, no fear or pain, no anguish or loss--just "divine embrace, eternal light." The music is likewise simple, dignified, and uplifting, and reinforces the text's message of hope. Lyrics To fallen soldiers let us sing Where no rockets fly nor bullets wing Our broken brothers let us bring To the Mansions of the Lord No more bleeding, no more fight No prayers pleading through the night Just divine embrace, Eternal light In the Mansions of the Lord Where no mothers cry and no children weep We will stand and guard though the angels sleep All through the ages safely keep The Mansions of the Lord #weremember
