"Military Wife" lyrics
Wes McClelland & Kree Harrison Lyrics
(feat. Andy Leftwich)
They'd been married for about a year
When Uncle Sam called, and said, "I need you here"
They packed his bags, and loaded up his truck
She stood beside him, never giving up
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife
She prays for strength, for the country the Stars and Stripes
She hides her tears, when she tucks them in at night
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife
The first few months were hard, but he never knew
He wrote to her each day, of skies both gray and blue
She traced the map on the kitchen wall
Whispers to God — "Keep him safe from all"
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife
She prays for strength, for the country the Stars and Stripes
She hides her tears, when she tucks them in at night
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife
Heavenly Father, watch over him wherever he may roam
Be his strength, be his shield and bring him safely home
Protect all the brave women and men of the U.S. military
As we worship You at Your throne, and in Your sanctuary... "Amen"
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife
She prays for strength, for the country the Stars and Stripes
She hides her tears, when she tucks them in at night
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife
When Uncle Sam called, and said, "I need you here"
They packed his bags, and loaded up his truck
She stood beside him, never giving up
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife
She prays for strength, for the country the Stars and Stripes
She hides her tears, when she tucks them in at night
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife
The first few months were hard, but he never knew
He wrote to her each day, of skies both gray and blue
She traced the map on the kitchen wall
Whispers to God — "Keep him safe from all"
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife
She prays for strength, for the country the Stars and Stripes
She hides her tears, when she tucks them in at night
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife
Heavenly Father, watch over him wherever he may roam
Be his strength, be his shield and bring him safely home
Protect all the brave women and men of the U.S. military
As we worship You at Your throne, and in Your sanctuary... "Amen"
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife
She prays for strength, for the country the Stars and Stripes
She hides her tears, when she tucks them in at night
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife
It's just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife
