Ten years of war, and
counting
far too many years, lives
lost,
so much pain, so many years,
of terror, lost innocence
the pain of our nation
Soldiers in the field
The nation weary
wanting our heroes home
Tired of the fighting
dividing our resolve
The price of freedom heavy
upon our thoughts today
the cost of freedom, the
cross, the grave,
Wanting peace to come
to rest in Your arms always
