My little sunshine ' from the time you were a boy

You have filled our hearts with happiness and joy

The sun brings warmth to our body and soul

God gave us a ray sun shine to love and hold

His name was Cliff and we were so proud

We told everyone ' shouted it out loud

We watched you grow from a boy to man

And now you must go to a foreign land

Duty called and you answered the call

And as a soldier you will always stand tall

I know as a soldier you'll do your best

Just put your trust in God and he'll do the rest

We will pray for you while you are away

We sure will be glad when our sunshine is home to stay

                                                to my son soldier indeed
