Memorial Day

I hope everybody
In this world today
Visits the soldiers
In their graves they lay

To pay our respects
Of their sacrifice, be
Who gave of their lives
For us to be free

To pray for the wounded
Who suffer this day
To stir in our soul
To help in some way

Think of their families
Of tears that won’t dry
The hole in their heart
Oh Lord, heal their “why?”

Commitment to love
All of us consort
May war small and large
Be our last resort
