Sight of Those Two Young Men

Sight of Those Two Young Men Both my brains and body had been aching When I heard news that was heartbreaking There are two normal boys now missing sea Only thing left and found is boat debris. Current at times can often be mean Creating quite a rough and terrible scene Our pain and suffering endures and endures And what if both our boys had been yours. How all of our hearts do long for and yearn For souls and bodies to have a safe return Instead of us continuing to be full of alarm Wish their charm was close in our each arm. Heard search for them was called off yesterday And now all we can do is to hope and pray That meaningful site of those two young men Will be seen here at home safely again. Amen.
