We beg, O God, for our sons and daughters,
As they head into potential slaughter,
We ask You protect them, keep them from harm,
Keep them safe, despite the growing alarm,
Let them know how much they are missed at home,
Wherever sent, close by or unknown,
Keep them in Your Hands, through any attacks,
Please watch out for them, please cover their backs,
I wish they didn't have to go to war,
But our freedom is what they're fighting for,
And if they have to sacrifice their lives,
Please comfort Moms, Dads, Children, Husbands, Wives.

PRAY FOR PEACE.

karla. :( *tears*
