"I want you to be forever strong on the feild so you can be forever strong off of it."



















-coach Larry Gelwix


Verse 1: O'er this land there flies a flag that flitters in the breeze. A flag so very beautiful; that stands for Liberty. We have a flag to be proud of; a flag we can love, a flag which I always pray will wave forever from Above.

Chorus: Tis the Star Spangled bangled Banner oh long may it wave; o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. So let this be our motto; let this be our creed:"In God is our trust" and in and in Him our belief; and the Star Spangled Banner, forever shall wave; o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Verse 2: The battles which were won by death, and shot and gun, which made this Nation free for all posterity, gave us a "flag" to be proud of, a flag we can love, a flag which I'll always pray will wave forever from above.


Chorus: Tis the Star Spangled bangled Banner oh long may it wave; o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. So let this be our motto; let this be our creed:"In God is our trust" and in and in Him our belief; and the Star Spangled Banner, forever shall wave; o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Verse 3: But now it's up to us to keep this Nation free! To stand up for our rights and defend our Liberty. We have a flag to be proud of, a flag we can love, a flag which I'll always pray will wave forever from Above.

Chorus: Tis the Star Spangled bangled Banner oh long may it wave; o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. So let this be our motto; let this be our creed:"In God is our trust" and in and in Him our belief; and the Star Spangled Banner, forever shall wave; o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

So let this be our motto; let this be our creed:"In God is our trust" and in and in Him our belief; and the Star Spangled Banner, forever shall wave; o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

So let this be our motto, let this be our creed: "In God is our trust and in Him, our beliefs".

"In the end, it's still best to wait for the one we want rather than settle for what's available. It's still best to wait for the one you love rather than to settle for the one who's around. It's still best to wait for the right person, because life's too short to waste on the wrong one."

as a kid?? how old was he??   This is really good! Tell him I like it. My brother is a marine and so I really like these kinds of songs.
