A Soldiers Wife

A Soldier's Wife

Oh Dear Lord I humbly pray
For strength to make it through this day
As I lay to rest my heart . . . . My soul
Can you find a way my hand to hold

Oh Dear Lord I come to you
The car to take me will be here soon

As I stand between
What was ... and What will be

It is the 'What Is'

That I now must live
To be my reality

For freedom's call he gave his life

Lord . . .
I am proud to be a Soldier's wife
But I am not sure I can sit today
Before the ground where he will lay

His coffin draped in red white and blue
The soldier that did what he chose to do
But therin too will lay the mortal man
With the hand that wore our wedding band

Upon the winds that mournful song

Oh Lord . . . . Please . . . .
Help me to be strong
For I AM A US Soldier's wife

... oh ... how am I
To make it to this night

The car is here Lord
I have to go

Please somehow help the world to know
That freedom comes at great sacrifice

Please help me Lord

A Soldier's Wife

"On behalf of the President of the United States
and a grateful nation, please accept this flag as a token
of the honorable and faithful service of your loved one"
