A Captain Of The Marines

It was Maundy Thursday when we found out you had died
And so we have more to pray for this resurrection week
Hoping you will ascend with Christ to Heavenly Throne
Where your intelligence wit and military training you
Learned in two wars for fifteen years entitle you to
A medal of merit in hard battles led by Jesus against
The evil forces of greed and injustice under command
Of satan who was never able to overcome determination
You represented even as you suffered wounds and other
Difficulties of this Earth from which you've now departed
To assume control of the soldiers awaiting the advent
Of your skills to rout the enemy eternally from sweet
Memory of peace that existed before you came to world
To demonstrate the correct method to overcome demons.
