Sandy Beach by Willie P. Smith |
He went to war a young man
Willing to do his best. He fought in many battles And lived up to the test. In the midst of raging battles He watched as many fell. He could be the next to die In this living hell. Time after time he struggled To make it through each day. Before each battle, he fell to his knees To the Lord, he would pray. "Dear Lord, I'm no better than others Who are Fighting in this war. I ask for you to bless us all That's what my prayer is for. Help us in the battles to come Let us make it through. If we should die in the fight Take us to heaven with you". In his final battle Returning home within his reach, He died by an enemy's bullet On a sandy beach.
