The Edge of Peace - Where Angels Whisper and Danger Breathes

David Burnell

"The Edge of Peace" is a gripping spoken-word ballad that captures the tension, sacrifice, and silent heroism of a real-life mission into the war-torn borderlands of Burma (Myanmar). Echo Valor founder David Burnell recalls his journey to support the Karen tribe—a persecuted Christian people fighting for survival—through the lens of memory, brotherhood, faith, and purpose.

The ballad spans jungle terrain, personal sacrifice, and moments of divine whispering amid danger. It honors the friendship with a Special Forces legend, "Bacsi,” the tribal medics risking everything for knowledge, and the warrior’s path shaped by necessity, remembrance, and deep spiritual grounding.

More than a mission log, this is a meditation on love for the stranger, the cost of service, and the quiet resolve to answer the call—again and again.
