I am a warrior,
I fight not for glory or fame,
For they are momentary.
I fight for those who can't.
I fight for justice, the oppressed and the down trodden.
And if I should lose my life for these just causes,
Then I have no regrets,
For I serve to protect the innocent.
It matters not where or when,
For evil knows no boundaries.
Be it fire, flood or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee.
Justice is my weapon. Faith my shield and Hope my armor.
Cry not at my passing for it was my Honor to fight for you.
Shed not tears of sorrow but tears of Joy,
For now, I stand with God.
