The Soldier Song Lyrics[Verse 1]
In another day or so
He'll be one year older
God bless his soul
Barely 18 years old
When he became a soldier
God bless his soul

[Pre-Chorus]
It's not like he didn't know
The way that things could go
Hope was all he had to cope
But he never made it home
[Chorus]
Well, I hope and pray
That when God called his name
He did not die in vain
I like to think he died for you and me
And I hope one day
When we look back again
And he's just a memory
That we'll appreciate and respect the life he gave

[Verse 2]
In another year or so
She might have been a mother
God bless her soul
But she'll never get to hold
Her baby girl or know her
God bless their souls

[Pre-Chorus]
It's not like she didn't know
The way that things could go
Hope was all she had to cope
But she never made it home

[Chorus]
Well, I hope and pray
That when God called her name
She did not die in vain
I like to think she died for you and me
And I hope one day
When we look back again
And she's just a memory
That we'll appreciate and respect the life she gave
[Break]

[Chorus]
Well, I hope and pray
That when God called their name
They did not die in vain
I like to think they died for you and me
And I hope one day
When we look back again
And they're just a memory
That we'll appreciate and respect the life they gave

Respect the life they gave
Respect the life they gave
Respect the life they gave
