For Those Who Walk With Death...Let Us Pray

Dear John Heck, Such things, seemingly impossible, seem all too possible and common. This is to all Soupers, and everyone in the world with a heart. "Let Us Pray" Won't take a nickle from your pocket, A cheap way to save a life, Don't underestimate it, More powerful than the sharpest knife, For Luke, Ashleigh, and Daniel, And Stephanie and Mark, And my valued friend John Heck, I know things look so dark... Please hold faith in God's great wisdom, Often beyond our understanding, If prayer has the power I believe in, Then prayer is what I'm demanding... No child should die so young, No pain could be as great, As to have a child of your's Pass through that Pearly Gate.... So, I pray, as I'm sure you do, Our words to God shall ring loud, Don't suffer our little children... For of them we are so proud.
