Another Chance.

To make OF myself Man.
To battle once more with new forged
lance.
To lift from, my soul. the ban:
God give me the chance to strive again.
Accourre me for the fray.
Let me wipe out the old time stain
In blood OF new born day.
Give me the courage that never swerSes
Though foe should haYass me sore.
Give me the faith that steadies the
nerves.
Unshaken forevermore.
God give me the chance to march again
In the Vanguard of the race:
What matter the clouds. the shifting
The blasts that wrinkle my face
Let NE endure both hardship and pain
AS I scale the heights 10 you:
And hoping. loving. striving again,
To fashion my life anew.
