He hoped his shoes were shining,Just as brightly as his brass."Step forward now, you soldier,How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek? To My Church have you been true?" The soldier squared his shoulders and said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain't. Because those of us who carry guns,Can't always be a saint. I've had to work most Sundays,& at times my talk was tough. & sometimes I've been violent,Because the world is awfully rough. But, I never took a penny,That wasn't mine to keep...Though I worked a lot of overtime,When the bills got just too steep. & I never passed a cry for help,Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God, forgive me,I've wept unmanly tears. I know I don't deserve a place,Among the people here. They never wanted me around,Except to calm their fears. If you've a place for me here, Lord,It needn't be so grandI never expected or had too much,But if you don't, I'll understandThere was a silence all around the throne, Where the saints had often trodAs the soldier waited quietly,For the judgement of his GodStep forward now, you soldier,You've borne your burdens wellWalk peacefully on Heaven's streetsYou've done your time in Hell
