Son of A Soldier
A Prayer for My Dad
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray God, my soul you will keep.
My mommy says I need to pray,
For many others on this day.
But my daddy - he is a soldier,
Of this I am sure you know,
He helps protect our freedom,
I was sad to see him go.
Although I know he is safe with you,
I would rather have him here,
Because he is the one who always said
With prayer, there is no fear.
God, I know you hear me,
Way up in the sky,
Please protect my daddy,
And comfort me when I cry.
I know he has a job to do
And protects our Country
With all his might
But, I can’t help but wishing, God
That he could be at home with me, tonight!
