"Military Wife" Wes McClelland & Kree Harrison

"This song isn't just about the person in uniform; it’s about the strength of the person holding down the fort with grace and a prayer. Kree and I both grew up with those Texas values of faith, family, and country. Bringing her voice onto this project added a layer of soul and empathy that truly honors the message Elise first put on paper." —Wes McClelland

Military Wife song performed by Wes McClelland and Kree Harrison

Military Wife (Song Lyrics)

Words and Music by: Joseph Wesley McClelland (BMI) Words by: Elise Burgamy Performed by: Wes McClelland and Kree Harrison Produced by: Dave Hagen, Wes McClelland and Ken Q. Turner Recorded at: Dark Horse Recording and  Kat House Studio, QCM Productions Publisher: © 2025 Etymon Music Publishing (BMI)


They’d been married for about a year 

When Uncle Sam called, and said, “I need you here.” 

They packed his bags, and loaded up his truck 

She stood beside him, never giving up


It’s just a day, in the life of a military wife 

She prays for strength, for the country the Stars and Stripes 

She hides her tears, when she tucks them in at night 

It’s just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife


The first few months were hard, but he never knew 

He wrote to her each day, of skies both gray and blue 

She traced the map on the kitchen wall 

Whispers to God — “Keep him safe from all.”


It’s just a day, in the life of a military wife 

She prays for strength, for the country the Stars and Stripes 

She hides her tears, when she tucks them in at night 

It’s just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife


Heavenly Father, watch over him wherever he may roam 

Be his strength, be his shield and bring him safely home 

Protect all the brave women and men of the U.S. military 

As we worship You at Your throne, and in Your sanctuary... "Amen”


It’s just a day, in the life of a military wife 

She prays for strength, for the country the Stars and Stripes 

She hides her tears, when she tucks them in at night 

It’s just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife 

It’s just a day, in the life of a military wife, a Military Wife
