A Military Spouse’s Prayer

A Military Spouse’s Prayer

Author Unknown


Lord,

Give me the strength 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 the patience to know in my heart

That he is serving his country and doing his part

Give me the strength to carry on

When he’s working late or must be gone

Give me a task to do each day

To fill the time while he is away

Give me others who can share

The ups and downs and who’ll really care

Give me the wisdom to get me through

When I’m not quite sure of what to do

And Lord, while our family is here

Keep us healthy, safe and full of cheer.
