Our Troops

As they pack their bags, tears well up in their eyes
Even if they don't want them to
Trying hard to say their goodbyes...
And go off to do what they have to do 

Packing away memories of being a boy 
No more laughter and fun with friends 
It is time for our young boys 
To go out and become men

Our hearts, love, and prayers are with you till the bitter end
Thinking of you each day...
As you troop forward and defend..
Making it a better U.S.A.

God be with you each and every one 
May he keep you safe and happy
May he guide you by the light of the moon...
And bring ALL of  you home soon 
God Bless Our Troops
