Come Home

Alone I have sat and stared into perpetual night.
Feeling the pain of this world bare down upon my very life.
I have seen evil men turn wrong into their own right.
I have seen the innocent die and the poor in their strife.
I have stood in places where others refused to stand.
Filling the very soul of that place with hope and with a Dream!
I have spoken the Truth, so that fools may understand.
I have seen the power of Freedom, when eyes begin to gleam.
I have also been blessed to know of Beauty.
I have rested my head upon her breast to sleep.
She has given me Courage to fulfill my duty.
And of her cup of Love I do drink, oh so deep.
Before the God I serve, I bow before Your Throne.
A weary warrior, who fights, yet longs to come home.
