We were Heroes That day
by: Duane Anderson

We were heroes that day
Our black wrapped proudly
In green and sunshine gold
There was something special in our way
Bolder heads held far more proudly
We painted the sky, black, green and gold

We were heroes that day
The world heard our song
They basked in our joy and told,
Our story with pride all the way,
They recall our triumph, fast and strong
We paved our streets with gold

We were heroes that day
We wrote a page in history
We climbed high and rose above all
When we are remembered they will say,
Peace was bought with our glory,
And hope returned to us all

We were heroes that day
The world will never forget
Our names, our stride, our country
We were heroes that day
Surely if there were anything to regret,
that this day should ever fade from your memory
