Prayer of a Soldier's Family

Heavenly father, you placed this desire in his heart
And on this journey he did depart
With confidence he took a stand
Vowing to protect our nation and defend our land

Left behind we sit and wait
To find out our country's fate
I know you have your angels standing guard
Just knowing he's there makes it really hard

I pray that you will keep him out of harms way
And in your hand he will stay
As I lay my head down to sleep
I pray all those who serve, in your hands you will keep.
