A Soldier,S Coming Home...
A decorated soldier a flag,a purple heart,
something meant to celebrate just tore their lives apart.
Friends and family gather we bow our heads to pray,
A soldiers coming home but they"ll bury him today.
We all call him a hero he fought just to protect,
never had a doubt not one single regret.
God, my heart goes out to his family and friends,
so many hearts are broken so many lives to mend.
To me he was a stranger I don,t even know his name,
still he fought for me and treated all the same.
Someone has lost a son a brother, or a dad,
that part really hurts me and makes me really sad.
We know that he,s in heaven with our precious Lord above,
A soldier,s coming home today God please give him my love.
God bless his family and God I will pray.
I dedicate this to the young soldier that died in Iraq
in 2010. From S.C God bless all..
