| The Army calls out as Lady
Liberty weeps.
Night stars gleam down on this path you must face.
An altered
life direction now placed before you,
you receive your orders in the hours
of darkness.A soldier's pride and self respect will keep our homeland safe.
With
each day of your tour, you will uphold our honor. Yet remain true to your ideals
during service to our country.
You represent America, The Land of the Free.Some
have never seen
War, comprehending it, so unreal.
Your sacrifice will ensure
our freedom's entitlement.
Inevitably life on the line,direction without principal,
shall give you vehemence to endure and stay focused.
You shall take up
arms defending what we hold dear.
Resolve to bear whatever dangers may threaten
to purloin this.
For what we've asked of you, you bestow so much to all,
our
plights seem so trivial, for all you opt to face.
Entering this foreign desert
sand, stationed to fight for freedom.
Callous wind and fiery sun battered,
your mission is to liberate.
As you proudly take a stand, feel the courage
within yourself, to fear no evil and resist every enemy that dares to try in vain
to steal that away.
As days and months seem endlessly marching past,
I
shall whisper a prayer for you,
with each breeze that blows.
I will ask
God to shield you and guide as you defend us,
through each brave Battle with
faith and prayer.
As you band together in unity with strength you now share,
know that God holds you all in the palm of his hand.
Come back safely,
we are waiting for you.
Don't ever feel discouraged or that you are alone,
and may you have Angels to illuminate your way home.
