Twenty Four

Had I been given 24 24 hours, 24 minutes, 24 seconds. To look into your eyes With so much disguise Only to tell you of your smiles That took my day on a journey of many miles. Had I been given 24 24 hours, 24 minutes, 24 seconds. To bring you to a safe abode Oh, you beautiful child of God Talented and bold Your hand I wish I could hold. You swore to cherish every day. How you managed to do so, I must say. Living and praying to do right. By His power and might, your inner light is bright. Look below and you can see, You’re an angel that goes beyond the seas. For the earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it. He founded it on the seas and established it on the waters. Like water you swerved the scenes only to be known as SWERV No wonder your absence hits every nerve. But like in Psalm 24 CNU’s Captain # 24 Brian Hermann, you belong to God Had I been given 24 24 hours, 24 minutes, 24 seconds I’d cherish it all In loving memory of Brian Herman CNU's #24
