A prayer for the Navy girlfriends

Navy Girlfriends Prayer:

How often we've stood on dark flight lines and piers...
"I love you," "I'll miss you" whispered through tears.
During long separations, in peacetime, at war.....
My nights filled with dreams of this man i adore.
With only my memories to hold close at night.....
I love for the day God returns my sunlight.
Yes, life goes on when your loved one's at sea..
but the ache never leaves, the fear stays with me.
Dear Lord, I need your guidance, your love....
help me be brave, keep your watch from above.
Hold my dear one so safe in your heart and your hand
bring him home to his family.. this hero.. my man.
Of us, Lord, I pray he'll be filled with such pride...
of how we carried on without him by our side.
Please, help time fly quickly ans soon I will hold...
the hand of them man whose eyes chase the cold.
Whose voice brings delight, whose touch eases pain.
How will I ever say "Farewell" again?
With your help,dear God, I'll try to stay strong...
and pray that his tie here at home will be long.
Still, "I know that the navy will need him," I sigh
but we'll face it together, Dear Lord, you and I
