"Does He Know ..."    

Does he know...
How my heart beats when he walks out the door,
Into a world with many cares its apathy and so much more?

Does he know...
How often I think of him and whisper a little prayer,
That God will gently take his hand and lead him in His care?

Does he know...
How my eyes light up when I hear him on the phone,
And feel the sense of reassurance that he's close to coming home?

Does he know...
That I wear a smile when I see him walk through the door,
And that I'm glad he thinks our family is worth his fighting for?

Does he know...
How much I need him, and the joy I feel inside,
To be the wife of a deputy I'll cherish my job by his side?
