Thank you my friend Lt Col Charlie Brown for sharing the music video of John Conlee performing "They Also Serve" from the album Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus.
Lyrics
"She kisses little Katie's forehead as she turns out the light.
The night ahead in a lonely bed, she's a Military Wife.
She pushes back a tear, then sinks into a chair.
Her mind says that's the way it is, her heart says it ain't fair.
She knows the price of sacrifice, but she's proud to take her place
in that unsung corps of warriors that stay behind and wait.
They also serve, those who stand and wait.
Praying by the phone to learn their loved ones fate.
But they're still in the war, let there be no mistake.
They also serve, those who stand and wait.
Jake climbs on a school bus, marches bravely to his seat,
His dad's not home to say so long like his friends along the street.
He has to be the man at home, as long as daddy's gone,
He promised him the day he left, that he'd be brave and strong.
So he tells his little sister, don't you worry Daddy's coming home.
He's 8 years old, he's a Soldier's son, and he can hold his own!
They also serve those who stand and wait.
Praying by the phone to learn their loved ones fate.
But they're still in the war, let there be no mistake.
They also serve those who stand and wait.
Mothers and fathers
Daughters and sons
They don't wear a uniform or carry a gun
But they're still in the war
They also serve those who stand and wait.
Praying by the phone to learn their loved ones fate.
But they're still in the war, let there be no mistake.
They also serve those who stand and wait."
