Music by Jan Randall, Words by Carol Isfeld

You are going away my son
For reasons only God can understand
We're told you're trying to keep the peace
With our hurting fellow Man.

I know that each of our sons
Will make a friend with someone there
They are taking love from home
It will show them how we care.

They have been warring for decades
Now they're killing each other
Where does all the hate begin
To make us want to kill a brother.
I see my baby leaving soon
For a hopeless situation
That's my understanding
For this very troubled nation.
