THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY

The Beating of the drum
The Marching of the band
There is an empty silence
From where you used to stand

We will miss your special smile
That brought us so much joy
We will miss you Roderick Battle
Chandler's Little Drummer Boy

We are incapable to comprehend
God's divine and master plan
Or why God called you home
To play in His heavenly Band

We know the host in heavens
Will forever enjoy
The playing of the drums by
Chandler's Little Drummer Boy!

In Memory of Roderick Battle
"Chandler's Little Drummer Boy"
