Faith, Duty & God's Soldiers! ! Poem by Tom Zart

As we trust God and heed His will
We avoid being evil, disloyal and cruel.
When we do wrong there's a price to pay
For remaining ungodly, unaware and a fool~! ! !

Life is a constant test of struggle
Plagued by war, greed, work and debate.
Between all we love; those we tolerate
And some we can't help but hate.

I'd rather be loved for my unselfish concern
Eager to protect, provide and preserve.
I'd rather be loved for staying resolute
To my commitment to love and to serve.

I'd rather be loved for my awareness of duty
More than anything life can bestow me.
I'd rather be loved and receive God's grace
As I lay down my life before Thee.

Those rows of white crosses in manicured fields
Tell the story of ultimate sacrifice and love.
Always remember all we treasure and pray for
Are because of our soldiers and God above.
