AT CALVARY

As the nails pierced His hands for you and I                 
The lighting blazed across the sky
The temple curtain torn asunder
As angels watched in solemn wonder

"My God, where art Thou"?, He cried aloud
As jeers and taunts arose from the crowd
And then a peace surrounded God's Son
The final victory had been won

Where O death is now thy sting?
Did Satan to you a victory bring?
What say you Satan, King of lies?
God's glory now lights the skies

Never again do men have to die
For Christ our Savior reigns on High
Eternal live is ours you see
For Christ has won the victory

Dear America 

Dear American, remember me
I fight on the battlefield for Liberty
I stand proud for the Country I love
I am your brother, your father, your son

I've trained for this day. I'm America's best
I've learned how to battle, now this is the test
Of all the knowledge that's inside of me
I pray it's enough to keep us free

I know the enemies waiting for me
He's stalking and watching thru eyes that gleam
He's plotting his evil, his hatred of me
And all that I stand for. Yes, Liberty!

I ask you my brethren, America mine
To do one thing as I march in line
To bow your heads and pray for me
That God will cover me in His wing

From childhood I called Him God
I prayed to Him in days gone by
I trusted in the word He said
And now again I bow my head

Ashamed, I say, that I'm afraid
I wish that I could be more brave
But evil lurks on every side
The faith inside, it must arise

Please pray for me, is what I say
Ask God to keep me everyday
Protected by His wings of love
Let Angels hover up above

America, my Native land
I am your son and so I'll stand
And fight the battle, raging war
Until the enemy is no more

So Just one thing I ask of thee
America, remember me
I'll fight the battle to keep us free
You bow your head and pray for me

Glorious Day

There is always a brighter tomorrow,
If today you totally believe in faith.
Brighter day's to chase away your sorrows,
as a sunny smile shall appear upon your face.

While walking through life's journey,
We shall endure so many fall's.
But love and peace shall last for eternity,
Once God comes along making His call.

One day we shall all be reunited,
as we enter through the pearly gates.
Oh, how we all shall be so happy,
on that wonderful glorious day.
