In the middle of the night,
yet for them the dawning of day,
The man who leads our country
Brought need for the world to pray.
Our country is striking another.
Our soldiers are now at war.
And if you think our citizens will debate,
Wait till you see what the UN has in store.
In every way possible
A fight is full and raging.
All to defend each other’s stand
In the war that America is waging.
Dear Lord, may we all take heed
And remember it is in your hand.
I pray that we will all again know peace
And be given wisdom to understand.
