SOLDIER’S PRAYER
Lyrics and Tune by: Lucas Hynes
Intro: Em C G D ( x 2 )
(Verse: 1)
Em C G
I’m on my knees….in this dry and barren place
D
with dust upon my face and I’m weary.
Em C G
There’s enemies….and they share a common goal
D
to try and take away my soul, so please Lord hear me.
(Pre-Chorus: 1)
C D
I’m surrounded by soldiers yet I feel so alone.
C D
I just wanna do my job and go back home.
(Chorus: 1)
G D Em
I know life’s not always fair…sometimes the wrong defeat the right
C
So God I ask you to hear this prayer i pray tonight.
G D Em
I know that I may die in battle but that’s a price I chose to bear…..
C G D
But until that day please hear this soldier’s prayer.
(Verse: 2)
Em C G
Lord I’m still young… I just turned twenty-three.
D
A whole life ahead of me…. let me live it.
Em C G
I got so much love to give…..back to my friends and family
D
Cause they’ve done so much for me. Lord let me give it.
(Pre-Chorus: 2)
C D
Lord I’m not afraid of dying just the things I’d leave undone.
C D
I wanna meet my wife and raise a daughter and a son.
(Chorus: 2)
G D Em
I know life’s not always fair….I know that I’m not always right
C
But I wanna be when I pray this prayer to you tonight.
G D Em
I know that I may die in battle so let my family know care.
C Em C
But until that day please hear this soldier’s prayer.
(Bridge)
Em
I’ve seen blood and pain and people die in vain
C
In this game of war
Em
But Lord with your blessing there’s no second-guessing
C
I can go back to the life I lived before
(Instrumental)
G D Em C ( x 2 )
G D Em
I know life’s not always fair.…sometimes the wrong defeat the right
C
But Lord I beg of you to hear this prayer I pray tonight.
G D Em
If it’s my time to come to heaven then I will gladly meet you there
C Em C (let ring)
But until that day please hear this soldier’s prayer
(no chord)
Hear this soldier’s prayer
G D Em C G
