From "The Civil War" by Frank Wildhorn and Jack Murphy, this dramatic song brings the reality of war into strikingly personal terms as a young soldier sings of his father and his own mortality. A powerful choice for men's chorus!

    Tell my father that his son Didn't run, or surrender That I bore his name with pride As I tried to remember You are judged by what you do While passing through As I rest 'neath fields of green Let him lean on your shoulder Tell him how I spent my youth So the truth could grow older Tell my father when you can I was a man Tell him we will meet again Where the angels learn to fly Tell him we will meet as men For with honor did I die Tell him how I wore the Blue Proud and true through the fire Tell my father so he'll know I love him so Tell him how I wore the blue Proud and true like he taught Me Tell my father not to cry Then say goodbye

    How could you dislike something so pure and beautiful. It's sad because it's about veterans. And there's so many disrespectful people out there that treat those veterans alive/dead like trash. In reality those people whom do that are trash. Like have some respect the reason you're free and safe is because of them. So keep your disrespect somewhere else. Please and thank you!

    It was that feeling when I was gonna cry. But I know it’s normal because listening to this song u can’t imagine what they are going through in the fields and fighting for America. Saying there final letters to their loved ones. But RIP to the soldiers who have went on the fields and sacrificed their lives just to save America. And my choir teacher was in the army and told his stories of when he was in the army. Respect to the soldiers who have fought for our country and freedom!

But now that my grandpa is gone (he was in the army and was basically my dad because my dad left before I was born). I want to make him proud of what I am gonna do with my life and I also want to put effort into keeping this amazing country safe. I hope you all have a great day. :)

    I remember once listening to a story of a group of guys singing this. One broke down because his father was deployed in Afghanistan. Another broke down explaining that he couldn’t relate because he never had a father. Each and every guy had a story and it turned into a big emotional moment for them.
