274. Peace to the Brave

1 Peace to the brave who nobly fell
‘Neath our flag, their hope and pride!
They fought like heroes, long and well,
Then like heroes died.

2 Hallowed forever be the graves
Where our martyrs dreamless sleep!
Columbia, weep thy fallen braves,
But triumphant weep!

3 Nobly they died in freedom’s name,
Died our country’s flag to save;
Forever sacred be their fame,
Green their honored grave!
