Soldier Calling Out

Once brave and strong,

      now weakened by the long days of war

A soldier cries out in the silence of the night

      and nothing can be heard,

      only the echo of his lonely voice.


The battle of the human soul can only be measured by

      the grace and strength that God provides us

      who hears all voices night or day.

He is there beside us, even though

      we as the lonely soldier calling out

      do not always hear God's response.

But it will always be there

      if we hold on.
