Array ( [sid] => 94154 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => this goes out... [time] => 2005-05-12 12:03:59 [hometext] => this is to show thanks to our soldiers... they need a prayer too... and because my sister is one of those brave people that went out there...and so i say i silent prayer.. [bodytext] => To the soldiers that have risked their lives
Just so that we can be free
So we can feel love, care and joy
Our hearts go out to thee…

To the people in the those places
Where they can’t say what they think
Where women can not show they’re faces
Or laugh or dance or even drink…

To the people we always forget to mention
You know exactly who you are
You hold a grudge which causes tension
You guys are the ones that raised the bar…

To the leaders that aren’t around any more
They are the ones we miss
Because things aren’t quite as bad as before
They surely make the list

To our soldiers again
Who in our time of need helped us
Showed us that there is no shame
In saying that in god we trust…

So please remember
When you are in bed at night
That it is because of those good people
That you can safely go to sleep
when you turn out the light
