The Thrill of Victory, the Glory in Sight

The Coward'

A heart that trembles, with fear's cold grip

A soul that cowers, with a timid lip

A spirit that shrinks, from the light of day

A coward's refuge, in a hiding way

The brave may mock, with a scornful eye

But the coward knows, his reason why

He fears the unknown, the pain and the strife

And so he hides, in a coward's life

He misses out, on the joys of the fight

The thrill of victory, the glory in sight

He settles for less, for a life half-lived

But still he dreams, of a courage true

A heart that's brave, a spirit anew.
