The Price Of Freedom

~*~ It's Me Who's Got Your Back ~*~
I am a small and young child, my dads been sent to fight.
The only place I'll see his face, is in my dreams at night.
He will be gone too many days for my young mind to keep track.
I may be sad, but I am proud, my daddy's got your back.

I am a caring mother, my son has gone to war.
My mind is filled with worries that I have never known before
Everyday I try to keep my thoughts from turning black.
I may be scared, but I am proud, my son has got your back.

I am a strong and loving wife, with a husband soon to go.
There are times I'm terrified in a way most never know.
I bite my lip, and force a smile as I watch my husband pack.
My heart may break but I am proud, my husbands got your back.

I am a soldier...serving proudly, standing tall.
I fight for freedom, yours and mine by answering this call.
I do my job while knowing, the thanks it sometimes lacks.
Say a prayer that I'll come home.
It's me who's got your back.

~*~ Look God ~*~
I have never spoken to You, but now I want to say,
"How do You do God", they told me You did not exist.
And, like a fool, I believed all of this.
Last night from a shell hole I saw Your sky.

I figured right then they had told me a lie.
Had I taken the time to look upon your creation,
I would have known then, we live in a great nation.
I wonder, God, if You would shake my hand.

Somehow, I feel that You will understand.
Strange, I had to come to this hellish place
Before I had time to see...Your face.
Well, I guess there isn't much more to say,

But I am sure glad, God, I met You today.
I guess the zero hour will soon be here,
But I am not afraid since I know You are near.
The signal just came, God, I will have to go,

I love you lots, this I want You to know.
Looks like this will be a horrible fight,
Who knows, I may come to Your house tonight.
Though I wasn't friendly with You before,

I wonder, God, if You would wait at the door.
Look, I am crying, me shedding tears!
I wish I had known You these many years.
Well, I will have to go now God...goodbye for now.
Strange, since I met You, I am not afraid to die.
