Lyrics
Sending out a prayer for all the warriors standing guard, preparing for the fight
I'm praying for your strength and for your courage through the night
I'm praying that you all return home safely, welcome you back to friendly shores
And I pray you know God is with you
Give you shelter from your storms
Sending out a prayer for all the mothers who worry for their children every day
Stationed in a lonely, foreign land a world away
I'm praying for the fathers who in silence shedding a tear that no one sees
Crying out for their sons and daughters
"Lord, please send them home to me"
I will pray for you, will you pray for me?
And together lift our voices to the Son.
When we pray as one, asking Thy will be done
We will stand upon the promise that we'll see Your kingdom come
Sending out this prayer for all the warriors facing down the very gates of Hell
I'm praying for the soldier who lies buried where he fell
And I pray for you saints and for us sinners knowing this one thing is true
We are all God's children and this prayer we pray for you
Is an every day reminder, that it's the least that we can do
For you
