Faith and Fear
Everyday I feel so sad,
and sometimes I just feel mad.
And then I sit and wonder when,
and if I'll see you once again.
Will God keep you safe and sound?
Will you come home to hang around?
I miss you so much, please come home soon,
You, and all of your platoon.
As you walk on night patrol,
I know God is in control.
That he will keep you safe, you see,
and you'll come home to be with me.
~Dedicated to my brother,
