A Life Choice

Under the shadow of the night
He stood there 
Carrying his life in his hand
And a torch in the other
He made up his mind
He made the choice
Either freedom or slavery forever
Either life or death would be better

Come with me brother
Come with me
Build the future together

It's time to walk down that road
Time to fight
Time to make our destiny
Our faith, our life journey
You and I, your torch with mine
Will sunrise against all the darkness
We may not see tomorrow
But we wont wake up full of sorrow

Come with me brother
Come with me
Build the future together
We are not alone brother
We are not alone

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
