Band of Brothers
Woke up with a splitting headache.
Still, the thoughts of the 18 have not gone away.
Of course it hasn't.
Ignoring or drowning them doesn't take the loss away...
A bunch of loyal and faithful brothers came to my place late last night.
We had a great talk and heavy laughter,
A good sob and a lasting remembrance,
A good toast to our hearts' content,
pining away into a resentment.
Tossed away that resentment.
Introduced a resolution
Wiped away the tears that streamed
Not knowing how many more would go as it seemed
Worrying not about tomorrow
Working hard for today
Seeking no more than peace of heart
Though what we had were pieces of hurt
A memory, not easily forgotten
I've trained you all but no longer are you begotten
Our sorrows deeply entrenched
O, woe to us for who is our friend?
I'm sorry Lord for not taking these sorrows to You.
I'm sorry for turning away from You and sinning against You at times.
Forgive me my trespasses as i forgive those who trespassed against me.
Lead me not into temptation but deliver me from evil
For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory,
Forever and ever, Amen.
What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
My band of brothers. A toast to you all and see you guys soon~
Thanks for last night. It was wonderful and sweet of you guys to come over.
Knowing the fragility of my heart to such matters. ^_^
