The background song by the West Point Glee Club and found at the end of the movie "We Were Soldiers" "The Mansions of the Lord" To fallen soldiers let us sing where no rockets fly nor bullets wing Our broken brothers let us bring to the mansions of the Lord No more bleeding no more fight No prayers pleading through the night just divine embrace, eternal light in the mansions of the Lord Where no mothers cry and no children weep We will stand and guard tho the angels sleep All through the ages safely keep the mansions of the Lord Words and music by Randall Wallace
