Poem, A Soldier's Prayer undated WWI/Collective External Source Soldier's Prayer from Archie Wills fonds: Lord, ere I join in deadly strife / And battle's terrors dare / First would I render soul and life / To Thine Almighty care / And when grim death / in smoke-wreaths robed / Comes thundering o'er the scene / What fear can reach the soldier's heart / Whose trust in Thee has been?
