Hark! to the tread of marching feet,
Of gray-haired veterans on the street,
With whitened hair and their forms bent,
On a journey of love intent.
Salute the veteran heroes.
Hands now weak, but their hearts are bold,
To comrades true as virgin gold,
Flowers are clasped instead Of gun,
For absent ones who victory won,
Salute the passing heroes.
Marching by with unsteady tread,
Unto that place where lies their dead,
Eyes are now dim that once were bright,
Swords are now sheathed from the fight.
Salute the veteran heroes.
The muffed drums a slow time beat
For their marching, faltering feet;
Breathing a silent prayer to God
For their comrades beneath the sod
Salute the passing heroes

Hark TO the Tread of Marching Feet

Old and sere like the autumn leaf,
Yet among men each one chief,
Were loyal to their flag, and brave;
Still loyal to those in the grave
Salute the veteran heroes
Join them in their work of love
For absent ones now camped above;
Doff hats, and to them bend your head,
And bring sweet flowers for their dead
Salute the passing heroes.
Thev stood firm amid storm of shell,
Faltering not when comrades fell;
Risked life so sweet-could they do more
To save the flag we all adore?
Salute the veteran heroes
As they go marching by this day,
Sweet flowers on the graves to lay,
Salute each one as if a king,
And roses for the absent bring.
God bless these veteran heroes.
