Christmas in Heaven
I drove by the post office today, saw the flag at half mast.
A soldiers duty was fulfilled at last
There's a soldier girl or boy
Not coming back to Illinois
As a parent with a son serving so far away.
I know, the pain someone feels today.
Someone died for you and me.
Another hero lost fighting for his country.
Some soldier's in heaven this Christmas, a new warrior
at the pearly gate.
We're all saddened at this soldier's early fate.
Long ago, God sent his son to save us, a soldier duty is to protect us as well.
We pray, that peace can be found but, only time will tell.
Amazing grace, how sweet that sounds, a soldier died to save us.
Another brave soldier will be in heaven this Christmas
