A Soldiers Prayer
By Mike McCracken
A soldier writes a letter home
Just a simple prayer
Says, Im standing here all alone
Wishing you were here
Loves the hardest part
Of not being able to hold you
The pain runs through my heart
The way its suppose to
(chorus)
I gotta go now
See you when its through
Well be together somehow
Cant wait to hold you
Bullets pierced my heart
But thats not whats hurting me
Heaven and Earth are worlds apart
Where the bullets use to be
I didnt know I died
Till you cried too
I prayed to God and cried
For this letter to reach you
An angel delivers a letter
In the winds from above
She saw him standing there
With Heavens love
Tears ran down her cheek
As she read his every word
An Angel she did meet
Her soldiers prayer was heard
I miss you and love you
I'm sitting here all alone
Cause mostly all I do
Is wait for you to come home.
Is wait for you to come home.This song was written because of the war in Iraq. I also wrote this while teaching poetry while as a substitute teacher.
