SNIPPET

One human being can do more evil than all other species put together.  

Thomas Aquinas

SCRIPTURE

The valiant lie plundered, they sleep their last sleep; not one of the 

warriors can lift his hands. At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both horse 

and chariot lie still.  Psalms 76:5,6

SONG

THE GHOST OF GENERAL LEE

Through the smoke and the mud and the blood we 

walked behind Robert E. LEE

Sixty miles from Richmond to face the Union Army

We dug our holes and we built a wall 

because we knew they’d be a fight

If the blue coats wear’n soldiers crossed the river that night

Sure as hell that sundown came a hundred thousand men

And it sure did shock me Lord, Kin killing Kin

The cannonballs were heavy filled with iron and steel and lead

And the James river water ran a bloody red

Lord is it right did you mean to kill my brother here tonight

Guitar break

It has been one hundred forty years and as I look around

I see a mighty city where there once was a battle ground

I thought when LEE surrounded we would fight no more

But the ghost of LEE can still see us fight the civil war

Lord is it right did you mean to kill my brother here tonight

SENTENCE PRAYER

Father you care for me, save me from becoming human wreckage.  

Help me to be self-controlled and alert so I may see the enemy 

coming, even if it is me!  Help me to train hard so I will stand firm 

against the enemies of God!  When I hurt keep my faith strong, by 

looking at other human wreckage that need my help!  Save me from 

myself, so I can guide others to the Light.  In Jesus Name Amen! RM
