God bless my family when I am away, Leave the lights on I'll return from harms way, Grant me courage and strength to protect others each day, So they live in peace without worry, fear or dismay, Bless those who have fallen given their life for another May their spirit live on from then and forever, Return me home to my family at the end of each night, May I pass through the door before the morning's first light, Shall I give my life for another before the dawn breaks today, God bless my family when
