In Remembrance of those that have fallen
A reminder of the sacrifices made
|
|
When a Soldier is wounded in battle
the nerves of his buddies it does rattle.
When news reaches friends and family at home
how their worries and minds begin to roam.
A wounded Soldier feels inadequate at best
stopping him from much needed healing rest.
A wounded Soldiers wonders will he ever be alright,
trusting in God that he'll make it through the night.
When a Soldier is wounded far beyond repair
the loss and pain felt can not compare.
The Cost of a Soldier is set so very high
they assure our freedom will always apply.
To stand beside a Soldier and walk through his pain
will humble a civilian, no longer to complain
Love, patience, trust and hope is what a Soldier needs
to get them through some very treacherous deeds.

for our troops serving in harm’s way, we have chosen to ride primarily
