My Soldier

Contributed by Lo2681 on Tuesday, 30th May 2006 @ 04:23:08 PM in AEST
Topic: Patriotic



In the unforgiving trenches,
Clenched to nothing but his gun,
Protect him please dear Lord,
This soldier is too young.

He is fighting for all he knows,
Serving his country the best he can,
But Lord please be with him always,
Answer his prays that come from wounded hands.

Some say war is not the answer,
While some say it's the only way,
But Lord I could care less what is or isn't,
Just let this soldier see another day.

If something happens,
And he should be taken,
It wont be the first I’ve seen,
But please dear Lord don’t let that happen,
For this soldier is close to me.

My cousin's out in Iraq, so I kind of understand what you're going through, it's tough having someone out there, good luck to both of you,
