This is My Son
My only son goes off to war, he's unafraid to live and die for a people who don't even know who he is, and I understand now just what you did.
'Cause - This is my son, my only son, and I give him up for a
people who don't - care that they're free at the cost of his life. I understand now your sacrifice. You gave us yours and I gave them mine. Lord keep him safe he's my only child. Please bring him back home. This is my son.
I watched him grow into a man and I must believe he's now in your hands, Lord help me to keep in front of my mind that you gave your Son so that mine would have life.
This is my son, my only son, and I give him up for a
people who don't - care that they're free at the cost of his life. I understand now your sacrifice. You gave us yours and I gave them mine. Lord keep him safe he's my only child.
Please bring him back home. This is my son.

You're quite welcome. I saw the group perform this live last night in Kansas City at the "Celebration at Union Station". Awesome group, fantastic song, very appropriate for the occasion.

Lisa- Yeah it should have a warning! I was like a snotty nosed kid at the concert the other night when I heard it live!
Dayna- I knew you would understand and appreciate it!

Thanks Treas, heres a kleenex, actually it's a Puffs Plus w/ lotion. Gotta have the soft ones with all the tears I'm wiping up these days! My baby boy is to be deployed in about 6 weeks, so please send up a few good words when you get a chance. I want him and all the other mothers sons and daughters home safe and sound!
