Lyrics by: WinterSky
Set to the music of "Away in a Manger"

 

Away in a war zone, no soft comfy bed
Our brave and strong Soldiers, lay down sleepy heads.
The stars in the sky look down where they lay.
The brave and strong Soldiers, try to sleep where they may.

As God and the Goddess keep watch over you,
Our prayers and our blessings we send to you too!
We thank thee, brave Soldiers, we’re so Proud of You,
As God and the Goddess keep watch over you.

The bombs going off, the Soldiers can’t sleep.
But the brave and strong Soldiers still try to get sleep.
I love you, my Soldiers, look up to the stars
And know we support you, you’re deep in our hearts.

Protect All, my Soldier, be Proud and be Brave.
Our prayers and our blessings, yellow ribbons displayed.
We’re Proud of our Soldiers, and sacrifice made.
Come home to us safely, come home to us – stay!

You’ve fought and you’ve helped, to bring peace to the world.
Our brave and strong soldiers, OUR HEROS – We’re PROUD!
We’re waiting for you, so return to us soon.
We thank thee, brave Soldiers, and welcome you HOME!

As God and the Goddess keep watch over you,
Our prayers and our blessings, we send to you too!
We thank thee, brave Soldiers, we’re so Proud of You
As God and the Goddess keep watch over you.
