No Soldier Is An Atheist Inside A Foxhole

“Everyone is a soldier, a great warrior in the battle to live better lives…when trials come, no matter how prepared we are, we always look for some divine intervention to make it through”

(January 16, 2007)

With their heads up

Flags and their marching bands

So proudly pushing forward

With victory on their minds

Brave soldiers

Undaunted warriors

Prepared by perseverance

Schooled by the harshest conditions

These boys turned into men

Ready to battle and rumble

With Rifles and grenades

Their resolve stronger than ever

But without a doubt fear is imminent

The courage of these men tested

Limits of the human spirit stretched

Beyond today none in mind for tomorrow

When face to face with the enemy

Nothing is much safer

Than the ground they stand on

A ground they dug to tuck themselves in

No soldier is an atheist inside a foxhole

When these great warriors are surrounded

And the conflict seem favoring the other side

And when life seem to be the greatest sacrifice

They pray for mercy and ask to spare their lives

When their backs are against the wall

They call upon to whatever gods they believe in

And hope a divine wind will help them make it through
