fought for us across the sea
brave and unselfish, kind, and true
Keeping Canada free!
I'll wear a poppy on Remembrance Day
To show I'm glad of what they did for me.
God bless our country as a prayer I pray
God keep Canada free!
We learned this song in grade 4, in 1978, funny the things that stick with you.
During all our school years we brought change to school to buy exactly these red poppies the Canadian Legion brought to each class. We wore them during the morning, and played with them all afternoon, and lost them before we got home, usually.
