A soldier’s prayer

may surprise you

because only one word is uttered

one word will do.

Please –

let this hate end

Please –

let these boundaries mend

Please –

help us be wise

Please –

help us open our eyes

Please –

keep freedom free

Please –

keep our liberty

Please –

protect my family

Please –

protect my buddies and me

One word spoken

but more felt with care

only the Lord hears

a soldier’s prayer.
