SOLDIERS WE ARE
A call we have hearkened
Never we hesitate to submit
Devoutness, is a life for us to live.
We are soldiers geared with powerful armor
Endurance, a blacksmith that molds us the weapon of truth.
Along the battlefield,in faith and wisdom we speak
Reflecting all what we have learned and received
Exactness and accuracy, we fight, we strive.
So many times we're stricken
0ftenly of longing we're grieven
Lowly man you're family is afar
Duty-bound soldier,all we can do is to bear.
In every new locale we are assigned to live
Every zealous brethren gives us strength
Resurrecting their hope for us is happiness
Seeing them strengthening one another is a bliss.
Of the times we speak never we let go of honor
Flattery and praise we humbly return to someone greater.
Compelling ourselves to do what we ought to do
Hindrances along the way we surmount it away
Reassuring God's nation to remain on salvation
Infliction of imperfection, we feel, yet we go on
Soldiers we are, and we know what we fight for
This is "us", this is the life we have chosen.
(limited reverie of an aspirant soldier)
