| Some Still Stand | 
|
| We have many men and women in a war this day
Should or shouldn't it's been a long, long way
Our loved ones have and are facing disaster there
In a far away and evil country; we keep them in Prayer
Many have been slain for a far away land of greed
Hostile to our sweet Jesus; planting bad seed
We love and respect all and urge them to together band
Many have died there, but some still stand.
No matter the violence; our troops will be
Always together in thought; in harmony
Blest be them and their families at home
Some will come back; never more to roam.
We have the best in the world there; all contend
Favored by America and most other at hand
So many have fallen; heroes with God at rest
So many families for safety; have given their best.
God bless America and our neighbors about
Pray for our people to stand up and shout
Many are still ready to give their life; give them a hand
Many have died a hero's death, but some still stand. | Pearlie Duncan Walker
