Amy, Just found you site a few days ago but I love it. Thought you might like the following. It is actually lyrics to one of my songs but I think you will find it appropriate.
A SPECIAL PRAYER
When I lay me down to sleep I thank the man upstairs
For blessings that he sends my way just because he cares
Enough to give this working man more love than just my share
Before I close my eyes to dream I say a special prayer
CHORUS
God Bless our men and women in harms way
Protect them with your unseen hand keep them safe today
Stay near in every conflict give them peace and rest I pray
God Bless our men and women in harms way
I'm not one to put on a show or create some big scene
Sometimes I struggle with my words but I know what freedom means
And I tear up just thinking about the sacrafices made
To preserve the way of life we all enjoy today
CHORUS:
TAG: Stay near in every conflict keep them safe today
God Bless our men and women in harms way
