Short Stories
By Anthony Giger
“I’m Proud to be an American”
I’m Proud to be an American
In a land where you are free
Where you can live next to neighbors
Without animosity
I’m Proud to be an American
In a land where you are free to love
Where we are blessed by a God
Who smiles from above
I’m Proud to be an American
In a land where you are free to roam
Where you can sail its seas
And always come back home
I’m Proud to be an American
In a land where you can live without fear
And be with loved ones
And all you hold dear
“Reunion in Heaven”
We must go out to sea again,
The years are winding down,
We’ll soon be seeing God, friends
And shipmates He has found,
God, what are chances to raise our ship,
We’re going to need her for our trip,
Hark; your loyal angel is there to round up the crew,
Many are with You except for a few,
Oh, what a joyous reunion there will be,
With PC 65 as it heads out to sea,
With God at the wheel we have nothing to fear,
Love everlasting with all we hold dear, Amen
