God's Hand

Another day like so many others With American's blood spilling on foreign sand, So many wounded and so many lives have been lost There are so many led to heaven by God's hand. How many soldiers do we have to sacrifice To satisfy this political and useless war, We can not win against the Arabs For they just keep coming back for more. They sacrifice their own women and children Arming them with bombs and other war fare, So they can hide behind them in cowardness They it is what Allah wants, but they do not care. The militia has fought for hundreds of years They will not allow an Iraq government to be formed, They abhor Americans and our troops interfering there So they will keep killing them as they have warned. Keep our troops safe while they are there May God bless them for what they stand, Because they are brave and will keep fighting Till God leads them out by his hand. Their children are growing up without a parent Having to face life the best they can, Though they know they died a hero And was lead out by God's hand. They know they will have to be very strong Yet still some are to young to understand, As they grow older and understand what happened May God give them strength and lead them by his hand.
