This was posted awhile back also, touches my heart . . . . I Give my Son to you: I held him as an infant; I hugged him as a boy. And through the years he has become My greatest pride and joy. I love him more than I can say, His life more precious than my own. But gone are the whims and notions Of the little boy that I have known. For the years have passed so quickly Since the time it all began, And now he stands before me With the convictions of a man. He wants to serve his country He states aloud with pride, As I try to sort out the emotions That Im feeling deep inside. A union of the uncertain fear, for Which I cannot control, And the allegiance that lies deep within My patriotic soul. I trust that my years of guidance Will serve as a strong foundation As he perfoms the duties requested From his beloved nation. God, please guide him as he travels To the places our Soldiers have bled, And walk with him through pathways where those heroes feet have tread. Oh, Sweet Land of Liberty, Humbly I give you my son, Praying youll return him safely home When his work for you is done. -- Author Unknown
