Back home now I know you're prob'ly sleeping, But over here it's the middle of the day. I finally found some time to write a letter, Sittin' here a half a world away. I heard about all them folks protesting, As if I really want this war. But that don't stop me from believing There're just some things worth fighting for. And if I die before you wake, I pray the world will take A good look at what God's given us. If we could only understand Everything is in His hands. All we need is a little faith and trust. I want you to know it ain't too high a price to pay If I die before you wake. Tell everybody that I miss them, and I can't wait to get back home. Until then, I'll serve my country and be proud to wear this uniform. And if I die before you wake, I pray the world will take A good look at what God's given us. If we could only understand Everything is in His hands. All we need is a little faith and trust. I want you to know it ain't too high a price to pay If I die before you wake. No, it ain't too high a price to pay If I die before you wake. Everything is in His hands          IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER
