Poetry from within
A prayer for our soldiers
As we all lay down to sleep
We pray for the lives of our soldiers to keep
Give them the courage to face dangers they see
Give them the strength to make their enemies flee
Give them support whenever needed
Don’t let their thoughts become impeded
Keep them focussed on their mission
Don’t let anything impair their vision
Give them the knowledge that the hearts and minds shared
Really does make a difference and lives are spared
Give them the comfort that their loved ones back home
Will always be with them so they don’t feel alone
Let them know that we’re all so proud
That they are all heroes standing out from the crowd
That we’re always supporting them every day
And until they’re home safe – this prayer we will say
God Bless All our Troops
Stay safe always
