What do you think this poem is about?

Lest we forget

We remember them. They were so brave.
The price they paid. The life they gave
For by their death they brought us peace
They gave their life that wars may cease

We remember You. You were so brave.
The price You've paid. The life You gave.
For by Your death You brought us peace
You gave Your life God to appease.

Written after a communion service on Remembrance Sunday

Chorus
Lest I forget Gethsemane,
Lest I forget Thine agony;
Lest I forget Thy love for me,
Lead me to Calvary.
