Shadows of grief will now haunt me Young lives are gone from this world Lost in a desert of foggy sand By a grenade hatefully hurled
Bodies so brave and so eager Will fall damaged and cold in the sand For them there is no tomorrow No future - no dream - that they planned
The numbers will grow , I am certain Though I pray that soon this will end As courage and plan work together And honor - they fight to defend
Sights and sounds are now stealing The glimmer of youth in young eyes As bullets and missiles go raining Destruction - and pain - from the skies
God help them, defend them, prepare them Deliver them and this land Shield and protect and give courage In mercy, and by Your loving hand.
