Ladies and gentleman,
Today is a day for mourning and remembering
They had a hunger to explore the universe
And discover its truths and
They had that special grace
That special spirit that says give me a challenge
And I'll meet it with joy

The crew of the space shuttle challenger
Honored us in the manner
Of which they lived their lives
We will never forget them
As they prepared for their journey
And waved goodbye
And they slipped the surly of earth
To touch the face of God.
