Story behind the song
I'm always moved and inspired by the strength from within that my wife shows (she often surprises herself with it when we talk about how far she's come). Anyone touched by the experience of constantly caring for a chronic health condition or other adversity should hear this.
Lyrics
She lays her bandages out on the table She has to be able to take perfect care A living example of lifelong preparing To go into battle prepared She wonders at night how she got through the distance Held up resistance to the urge to give in A living example of lifelong endurance To live with the battle within Stronger and stronger through each day and night, she grows Stronger and stronger with personal might Her momentum's building up from within She cries, "Failure cannot be an option again" My gentle warrior My gentle warrior The vet'ran recalls those young days she retreated Fleeing an enemy deep in her mind A living example of growing to capture The courage she struggled to find Shell shocked and fatigued, yet her armor’s gleaming She slays her demons with mind and with soul A living example of a lifelong battle To keep her life under control Stronger and stronger through each day and night, she grows Stronger and stronger with powerful might Her momentum’s building up from within She cries, "Failure will be an option again" My gentle warrior My gentle warrior
