True Warrior

The presence of a giant in a frame so small Heart of a warrior standing tall The soul of an angel with the touch of a child She walks so proud on the longest mile She won’t give up, it’s a fight to the end May have lost the battle, but won the right to ascend And after she’s gone when there’s no more pain The memory of her touch will remain A True Warrior with unshakeable faith The battle that she fought would make most runaway A True Warrior, A Gentle giant inside Dealing with a monster, she kept her dignity and pride The hour draws close, her time is at hand As she prepares her journey to a promised land The peace that awaits and calls to her soul Has her name etched in light on a heavenly scroll Her battle’s nearly done and her war draws to a close To face this monster is a path she freely chose But look up in the sky pretty soon you’ll see a light As she’s held in the arms of an angel tonight
