Remember November! Poem by Denis Martindale

If you've known just one day of peace, do you know what that cost?
For wars endure, till they must cease, paid for by lives we lost...
When leaders planned, then speeches staged, while others had to fall,
When bombs came down... and battles raged... and soldiers gave their all...
When fathers left their homes to fight, for freedom to be gained,
When children prayed, by day and night, for fears to be restrained...
Despite those fears, across those years, by faith, wars came and went,
Despite their tears, then came their cheers, for peace was their intent...
A chance for hope to heal each life and broken heart once more
And that forgiveness ended strife, for that's the only cure...
It's why Lord Jesus showed the way, forgiving on the Cross!
Until the very end to stay, despite the shame and loss...
He asked the Father and God heard, the Holy Bible's proof,
That's why the Father kept His word! Yes, Lord! Your word is truth...
A royal pardon's offered still, for murderers and thieves,
Man's trust in God obeys God's will, for each one that believes...
How come Christ is love's miracle? Lord Jesus is God's Son...
It's why Lord Jesus gave His all, to save us, one-by-one!
