Lord, he is one, he's a poor soldier's son
And his heart has a part that is torn
And we all living on for the poor soldier's son
He has died long before he is born [2x]
True expression, life's devotion
Holy Moses, know that somewhere
That someone loves you
Fighting for you tonight, tonight
Failed to be one, he's a poor soldier's son
And he stands with his eyes to the sky
Let us pray for the one, for the poor soldier's son
He's the man with a child in his eye [2x]
True expression, life's devotion
Holy Moses, know that somewhere
That someone loves you
Fighting for you tonight, tonight
Praised be the one, for the poor soldier's son
And his heart finds a place on the ground
Let us pray for the one, for the poor soldier's son
He is lost long before he is found [2x]
