Michael Robert McGuire Soldiers lyrics

Freedom is Heaven...and war is Hell
Home is where their hearts are
Loving families as well

Hard to sell the meaning
Logic full of flaws
As we count the casualties of humanity
Still they fight for their cause

Thank God for the soldier, fightin' to keep me alive
God bless the troopers missin' births of babies
Wishin' they were home holdin' their wives
Say a silent prayer for the fallen men and women
They're heroes to you and I
When you're a stranger in a foreign land
The night winds blow colder
May we all stand hand in hand, and shoulder to shoulder
And thank God for the soldier

'Cross the ocean they traveled

Through the battlefields they roam
And all this political posturin' ain't gonna bring 'em back home

I wonder when it's gonna end
Why it ever began
And the more it goes on
The less I'll ever understand

Thank God for the soldier, fightin' to keep me alive
God bless the troopers missin' births of babies
Wishin' they were home holdin' their wives
Say a silent prayer for the fallen men and women
They're heroes to you and I
When you're a stranger in a foreign land
The night winds blow colder
May we all stand hand in hand, and shoulder to shoulder
And thank God for the soldier
