A soldier lying dying

Another youthful waste

Dying in a strange land

Surrounded by your foe

All the people left behind

To mourn your passing on

Marching forward To join God's Army

Up in the heavenly sky

So to my brave soldier

I leave you with this prayer

May the Lord take your soul

And bless it on its way

And bless the soul of all whose died

Fighting in the name of peace.

Dedicated to a faceless Friend I never met, but many a great moment we shared.
