Twenty Five of America's best
Will soon be laid to rest
They were our finest, the best of the best
Never, ever having settled for less

Yet The Lord has taken them away
Showing us all how we need to come together and pray
For all this sorrow and hurt can make us sway
But I know in my heart that these Navy SEALS are in Heaven today

But we cannot hide our deep, deep pain
As they fought and sacrificed truly for our gain
My heart aches for all, and all my tears drain
An American emotion that none of us can feign

Pray that God will comfort those left behind
And that the goal of peace, we may all one day find
Oh Lord such a great spirit that you now have mined
Who will keep us together, and keep us intertwined

God Bless The Navy SEALS.
