OH PURPLE HEART
OH Purple Heart
Covering the hole within my chest.
Where heart and love * and soul did hide.
Oh Purple Heart upon my breast.
Laying down my sword by the riverside.
On the Lords Wings to heaven I ride.
A badge of honor. A badge at rest.
Purple Heart Day ~~ Aug.7th.
Established by President
George Washington
In 1782

Oh Purple Heart upon my breast.
Oh Purple Heart upon my breast.
Covering the hole within my chest.
Where heart and love * and soul did hide.
My love of country, my family, my bride.
Oh Purple Heart upon my breast.
Like a Royal Guard I did my best.
Laying down my sword by the riverside.
On the Lords Wings to heaven I ride.
Oh Purple Heart upon my breast.
A badge of honor. A badge at rest.
Purple Heart Day ~~ Aug.7th.
Established by President
George Washington
In 1782
