Where does glory live, in the hearts of the brave,
In the stories of heroes, who dared to save,
In the moments of triumph, the battles they gave,
In the souls of those striving, their honor to pave.

Glory resides in the deeds that inspire,
In the hearts of the selfless, who never tire,
In the quest for justice, in the eyes that aspire,
In the unyielding spirit that rises higher.

It dwells in the courage to stand against tide,
In the sacrifices made, with nothing to hide,
In the strength of character, where values abide,
In the unwavering truth, never denied.

It's found in the love for a cause that's just,
In the bonds of kinship, in the faith and trust,
In the moments of kindness, in the hearts that adjust,
In the pursuit of dreams, in the hope and the gust.

Glory lives where humanity shows its best,
In compassion, in love, in the strength to invest,
In the face of adversity, a rigorous test,
In the hearts of the noble, forever blessed.

So, where does glory live? It's in you and me,
In the choices we make, in the world we decree,
In the love we impart, in the moments of glee,
In the legacy we leave, for all eternity.
