    In remembrance of Memorial Day

    "You’ve done your time in hell. 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 never took a penny
    That wasn’t mine to keep…
    Though I worked a lot of overtime
    When the bills got just 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 never expected or had too much,
    But 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 his God,
    “Step forward now, you soldier,
    You’ve borne you burdens well,
    Walk peacefully on Heaven’s streets,
    You’ve done your time in Hell.”
