This is such a perfect poem for Jim Caviezel to quote based on what is being risked by releasing the "Sound of Freedom" movie!
This is a slight paraphrase of a poem called "God's Hall of Fame" attributed to Alf Hutchison, Walth Huntley, and probably several others.
(We'll just say author unknown)  

God's Hall of Fame

Your name may not appear down here
In this world’s Hall of Fame,
In fact you may be so unknown
That no one knows your name;
The Oscars and the praise of men
May never come your way,
But don’t forget God has rewards
That he’ll hand out someday.

[verse omitted in Jim's speech here]

This crowd on earth they soon forget
When you’re not up at the top,
They’ll cheer like mad until you fall
And then their praise will stop;
Not God, He never does forget,
And in His Hall of Fame,
By just believing on His Son,
Forever – there’s your name.

I tell you, friend, I wouldn’t trade
My name, however small,
That’s written there beyond the stars
In that celestial Hall,
For all the famous names on earth,
Or glory that they share;
I’d rather be an unknown here,
And have my name up there.  

The movie was great and compels us all to think past the comfort of our cushy lives and realize this horror is going on around us - probably very close.
The question: What will we do about it?
I am left asking myself that question and am planning my next action prayerfully.
If you are like me and in a church - especially if you're in a group of Christian men, you need to bring this up to the group.
We are called to be the Watchmen of our communities and we are now aware of just how common this is becoming. Now that we know, we must take action to protect the most vulnerable of our communities.
So, what should we do?
