Song for the Soldier
Music & Lyrics by Lance Larson

Here's a song of misfortune, of a soldiers life.
How his honor and wisdom
caused his widow's cries,
and how in the hell could she ever forget
death ain't no popular prize.

So we propose a toast to the brave ones,
to the ones who gave their lives
to their honor and misfortune to their dying soldier's pride.

So she asked God for forgiveness
and He gave her some.
He gave protection to her daughters
and baptized her sons.
Now we all wonder and even regret
him dodging those bullets from guns.

So we propose a toast to the brave ones,
to the ones who gave their lives
to their honor and misfortune to their dying soldier's pride.

For they've given their lives.
For they've given their lives.
For they've given their lives.
