Hey Mr. Soldier, I have a prayer for you   You’re the one I sent it to, late last night   I saw your picture, in my dreams   You were broke down, but full of life   I don’t know who you are, I don’t even know your name   But just the same, Mr. Soldier, I have a prayer for you   Mr. Soldier, I have a prayer for you   I sent it to God, late last night   He put it in your pocket, and in your heart   And may it get you, to morning’s light   You may not know how much we care   Cause we’re not there to ease your pain   But just the same, Mr. Soldier, I have a prayer for you   I pray for your strength, I pray for your safety   I pray for your momma, I pray for your daddy   I pray for your sisters, I pray for your brothers   I pray for your wife, your husband your sons and your daughters   You may not come home to accolades, you may not come home to parades   But just the same, mr. Soldier, I have a prayer for you   Mr Soldier, I have a prayer for you.   You’re the one I sent it to late last night
