Chloë Agnew - Going Home
TO CHLOE AGNEW A BEAUTIFUL SONG
FOR OUR TROOPS COMING HOME,
IN GOD'S HAND OR RIGHT AT HOME
I AM NOT A HERO
Just a SOLDIER
Who
Served the Cause.
Those
Who Died
are HERO'S Lost.
They
Fought
For FREEDOM
Paid the Cost.
Those
Who Suffered
Wounds in WAR
Took
the BRUNT
For Us All.
Those
INFLICTED
by The Pain
Felt
Each Care
DYING, Slowly.
Those
Who Prayed
for The End
Are
all The HEARTS
Who
want PEACE Again.
Those
Who DIED
REMEMBER
Their Loss.
They
PAID A Price
For
FREEDOM'S WAR
I AM
NOT A HERO.
Just
a SOLDIER
Who Gave it All.
I Hope
my COUNTRY
is Better Off?
I Hope
my LIFE,
Was Worth the Cost?
I AM
NOT A HERO
Just
One of GOD'S
Soldiers Now
Who
Washed
on HIS Shore.
Dedicated To
The Soldiers in Iraq
& Afghanistan
A Poeatreeman
Honor
All
Who Served
Freedom's War
For
on
Our Shores
Lies
Freedom's Door
Always
Open
to Wash Ashore.
I
Pray
We Never
Close its Door
I
Pray
it Never
Leaves
Our Shore.

LYRICS FOR GOING HOME
ReplyDeleteGoin' home, goin' home
I'm a goin' home;
Quiet like, some still day,
I'm just goin' home.
It's not far, just close by,
Through an open door;
Work all done, care laid by,
Going to fear no more
Mother's there, expecting me
Father's waitin' too
Lot's o'folk gather'd there,
All the friends I knew,
All the friends I knew.
Home, home, I'm goin' home!
Nothin' lost, all's gain
No more fret nor pain,
No more stumbling on the way
No more longing for the day,
Going to roam no more!
Mornin' star lights the way
Res'less dream all done
Shadows gone, break o'day,
Real life just begun
there's no break,there's no end.
Just a livin' on,
Wide awake, with a smile
Goin' on and on.
Goin' home, goin' home.
I'm just goin' home.
It's not far, just close by,
Through an open door.
I'm just goin' home,
Goin' home.
