"missing In Action" They Claim You To Be

"Missing in Action" they claim you to be As you fight the war for us to be free. We have sensed your presence, felt your pain That you have suffered for our country's name. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We feel you are out there, still alive; Some of you still alive. Only God will ever know the tears You have cried. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You are somebody's father, some mother's son That's left with just memories And feelings that are numb Heaven's gates will be open for you For all the torture you had to go through. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- God rewards His angels with blessings on high And you're in that number, and you know why. Our eyes are now dry from shedding of tears But you can't dry the memories, they last through the years. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You are our hero now gone with the past. You left us our freedom, it's ours at last. No matter the cost, whatever we do A torch will always burn for you. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because of you there's hope for tomorrow Because of you the sun will shine. Because of your life there's hope for the future And there will be PEACE for all mankind. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- © November 1, 2001 Written by Ann Hart IN MEMORY OF THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO NEVER CAME HOME FROM WAR,,, TO GOD BE THE GLORY
