Fireman's Wife
-unknown author

The table's set, The meal's prepared, Our guests will soon arrive.
My husband once more disappears with a hope of keeping a child alive
While waiting at home again alone, Our plans having gone awry
My first impulse is merely to sit down and cry.
But soon again I realize the importance of my life
When I agreed to take on the duties of being a fireman's wife
While there are many drawbacks, I'll take them in my stride
The gusting winds and raging flames may be his final fate,
But with God's help I can remain my fireman's faithful mate
Lonestar-I'm Already There
