A Soldier Reports To God
A Soldier stood and faced his God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as brightly as his brass.
Step forward now, you soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To my church have you been true?
The soldier squared his shoulders,
and said "No Lord, I guess I ain't'"
because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But I've never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep..
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills just got too steep,
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here, Lord
It needn't be so grand.
I've never had that much in life,
So if you don't I'll understand.
There was a silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of God.
Step forward now you soldier
You've borne your burdens well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets
You've done your time on Hell.

Sorry this is late, but, I was busy memorial day being a veteran...
It is the soldier, not the reporter,
who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet,
who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the campus organizer,
who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier, not the lawyer,
who has given us the right to a fair trial.
It is the soldier,
who salutes the flag,
who serves under the flag,
and whose coffin is draped by the flag,
who allows the protester to burn the flag.
By Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC
