Once there was a time when I was too wild
War is so bitter and I never smiled
I cursed and I swore and I prayed to my Lord
To give me the answers that I had searched for
I wondered daily what was in store
Would I be blinded, crippled, or killed in this war?
I came back home totally confused fully detached and feeling abused
I felt my prayers had not been heard
That my Lord Jesus Christ had not gotten the word
But I was so wrong as wrong as could be
The Lord had heard and he had a plan
He gave me understanding to see who I am
He gave me a soul mate a very old soul
My empty heart he filled it with love
Then sent me two angels from heaven above
I guess the good Lord wanted to be sure
Because shortly thereafter he sent me two more
Now I had purpose and meaning in life
Four beautiful daughters and a wonderful wife
A humble home and a faithful dog
More than any man could expect and then some more
Love is the answer it\'s simple and pure Love is the answer
Of this I am sure.
