So in my cleaning lately we ran across a poem titled and hand written that had no author listed. After reading it is sounded like my style of writing and I can remember this poem. I have searched various engines trying to find this poem only to come to the conclusion that I am the author. If I am wrong please correct me so that proper credit can be given. I am not trying to steal this. I am 99.9% positive this is my own work.
Who Died for You
Who died for you who will not fight
Who died to turn darkness to light
Who died so that we call would be free
We killed him there on Calvary's tree
Christ chose to die for all man's sin
But do we remember who has died since then?
Who died for us in the U. S of A
Many died there for freedom today
Who died so that our rights could be granted
For the seed of equality to be planted
Who died on glorious battlefield
Musket, cannon and bayonet they wield
And fell by the hundreds in British sights
They fought to the death that star spangeled night
Who died for you with darker skin
As the war of the states did begin
Whoe died at Gettysberg at their bothers hand
To free the slaves and unite this land
And later on more would die
For something small, a bus ride
They would be hung and crucified
For equal rights so many died
Who died for you the female race
For equality in the work place
Battered and broken a war fought at home
Silent warriors fighting alone
So rant and rave, refuse to fight
Deny their deaths, abuse your rights
Let it be known you would rather die
By your own hand, than stand and fight
Tell the world how you feel
Let them know of your raw deal
Object in public that is your right
But remember those who chose to fight
Remember those who lived and died
For freedom's cause, they fought they tried
So tell me now what will you do
When the cause of freedom calls on you?
