I received the following from StrykerWife, who got it from cantrellgirl, who pulled it from the soldier's bible:
Lord, grant me the greatness of heart to see,
the difference in duty and his love for me.
Give me the understanding to know,
that when duty calls, he must go.
Give me a task to do each day,
to fill the time while he is away.
And Lord, when duty is in the field,
Please protect him and be his shield.
None of us knew who the author was. Do you?
