Brothers and sisters, sisters and brothers,
neighbors and friends and any others;
we come from the city,
the country, the world,
finding a place to stand.
All diff’rent people, all the same,
sharing a home, sharing a name;
we come from the city,
the country, the world,
now here we are, hand in hand!
And we have a song
to sing for each other,
a song for you and a song for me.
A song of love and understanding,
a song of peace and harmony.
A song of love and understanding,
A song of peace and harmony.
A song of love and understanding,
A song of peace and harmony.
Children of ev’ry color and climate,
we have a dream, today we’ll find it;
we come from the city,
the country, the world
finding a place to stand.
We are the children all the same,
sharing a dream, sharing a name;
We come from the city,
the country, the world,
now here we are, hand in hand!
And we have a song
to sing for each other,
a song for you and a song for me.
A song of love and understanding,
a song of peace and harmony.
A song of love and understanding,
A song of peace and harmony.
A song of love and understanding,
A song of peace and harmony.
A song of peace and harmony!
Remembrance Day Song 1: In Flanders Fields
The Crestview Singers are learning In Flanders Fields by Craig Cassils for our
Remembrance Day Assembly on November 10, 2023.
Click here to access a video that you can sing along to.
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
between the crosses, row on row,
that mark our place; and in the sky
the larks, still bravely singing, fly
scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead.
Short days ago we lived,
felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
loved and were loved,
and now we lie,
in Flanders fields.
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
between the crosses, row on row,
that mark our place; and in the sky
the larks, still bravely singing, fly
scarce heard amid the guns below.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
to you from failing hands
we throw the torch;
be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
we shall not sleep, though poppies grow
in Flanders fields
In Flanders fields the poppies blow,
in Flanders fields
In Flanders fields the poppies blow,
in Flanders fields.
