Soldier

There is a soldier Who’s willing to fight This is the soldier Who goes through the night Who puts on a battle Inside and out That keeps it all in When others would start He does what he’s told Wrong or right But there’s something different That’s in his sight It’s in his mind it’s in his heart She’s as pretty as She is smart She is golden Pure as can be I thank God He sent her for me With out her I don’t know What I would do Because with her Soon follows you Into my arms And I shed a tear Because I love my family A reason I’m here I snap back And look through my scope Thank God for my country It gives me some hope A hope for life That I can hold Here we go love I’m truly sold
