The old horse-drawn stagecoach, help tame the west
Bringing men and women dressed in their Sunday best 

Not being a trip for the faint of heart
Dirt, heat and sweat from the very start

Horses pulled with all their great might, to reach the changing post
Giving all they had as a team, for the masters they loved most

Transporting passengers to and from the wild wild west
Bringing some civility by those who were surely blest

The west was changed into what it is today
Because the old  stagecoach blazed the way

As politicians come and go throughout history
Are we better or worse off, that remains the mystery

The answers will elude the inquisitive minds 
of those searching for the great conspiracy

A person is tried with a jury of twelve. 
Hoping in their souls the truth they will delve 

Elections decided by a jury of the masses
The difference is, the amount of money that passes

If the love of money is the root of all evil
Will all future elections be won by the devil

Being touched by the heavenly hand from above
Wishing to bring words of peace and love
Why this was ever meant for me
It's in God's plan of my Destiny 

It can not be explained 
It can only be proclaimed

There are billions and billions of ways to express God's word
The most important are the ones He wishes to be heard

If one strikes your heart, don't be surprised 
For the amount of glorious love, it brings deep inside

Do you we're a smile on your face today?
A smile would indicate your inner feelings I would say. 

When you smile, others smile with you. 
When you frown, It indicates your blue.

The best thing in life you can always do,
is wearing a smile even though you don't want to.

What is the desire of your heart?
Is it something that sets you apart?

Is it a desire of this crazy world? A desire that can never be unfurled.

The soul lives on after death,
a spiritual desire would be best.

With that desire fulfilled,
your heart will never be stilled.

Audie Murphy a young farm boy from Texas 
Joined the army, many calling him reckless 

Growing up in poverty gave him many skills.
Determination and will to conquer many hills.

Through hellish war and lavish life,
Murph plodded on, plagued with much strife

Some saw him as a special being protected by God.
Murph saw himself on a lonely path he was given to trod.

He conquered because of perseverance and hope.
Due to his dear mother who taught him to cope

Life is never easy, the difficult decisions we have to make,
Leading us to our eternal destiny, wherewith God we will awake.
