soldier

Heartbeat strong, a story told, where duty always wins Feet upon the dusty ground, a whispered, silent plea For peace to finally be found, and set the spirit free. (Chorus) Soldier, with a weary soul, you stand against the tide Holding fast, to make us whole, with nothing left to hide Soldier, brave and ever true, your courage lights the way We're grateful for the strength in you, that brightens every day. (Verse 2) Through the storm and through the fire, you stand your lonely post Driven by a deep desire, to help the ones you've known the most Remembering the faces dear, the laughter and the tears Fighting back against the fear, and conquering all the years. (Chorus) Soldier, with a weary soul, you stand against the tide Holding fast, to make us whole, with nothing left to hide Soldier, brave and ever true, your courage lights the way We're grateful for the strength in you, that brightens every day. (Bridge) Though battles rage and shadows fall, your spirit will not break You answer to the nation's call, for goodness' gracious sake. (Chorus) Soldier, with a weary soul, you stand against the tide Holding fast, to make us whole, with nothing left to hide Soldier, brave and ever true, your courage lights the way We're grateful for the strength in you, that brightens every day. (Outro) So sleep now, soldier, rest your head, your duty bravely done The future's bright, the words are said, a victory is won.
