High Above -- Down Below

  
     high above… shines love

        celestial skies… peaceful dove… 

            down below... war’s glow

Wounded warriors weep in battlefields deep, bearing barren bones, they creep! How many more miles must they crawl before they sleep? All of eternity and more, they must reap! Suffering the flames of "Hellfire" in battlefields deep!
