A Soldier's Prayer
Lord I pray from day to day,
To help me understand,
How Americans view their heroes
and how they judge a man
If being someone famous
is looked upon with awe
somethings wrong here with our values
what are we fighting for?
I'm in the military and I'm proud of what I do
but I need to feel some strength and love
thats why I pray to you
some of our families left us
and now as years have passed
I feel the burden of the stress
for each day could be our last
I'm in the field of combat
with bullets surrounding me
those are few that care
for those whove died
protecting those born free
I'm asking for some comfort
some support and one more thing
to get some RESPECT and HONOR
for americans who fought for us
Your and I are heroes
no speech with tears in eyes
why is our country too blind to see
that the heroes will always be
those who fought for peace
were the heroes for you and me
those of us who fought for peace
are those who fought for freedom
and as we stand at the gates of heaven
awaiting to be let in
we will always protect us
We served in the Military
