Author of A Time To Kill

Strong, Prepared and faithful

Semper Vigilans Fortis
Semper  Paratus et Fidelis
And semper my temper
Calls me to do what’s right,
Not what I please,
To be strong, prepared and faithful,
Keeping my hands on the handle.
God’s Word that guides my life
Keeps me with child and wife
So anything I do
Goes first through You,
The Boss of all the world,
Which to confusion was hurled
On that day of rebellion
By that hellion
Born not of the bosom 
Of a nasty woman,
That sweet little Eve
Whom that Devil deceived
On that miserable day,
So they say,
That day of sin,
That fall when all
Went dark within.
No, that Devil is the one
Who messed with the Son
Long before He came down.
But he’s been “done in” by the Lord
Who hung on that board,
Nails through His hands and feet.
Then He took that seat
After He beat that cheat
And death when He arose.
And now He glows
With the glory of hosts
Who worship the Father forever
Him and Spirit most holy together.
