Memories of childhood, a place so far away |
|
Growing up together, it was where |
|
I thought we'd stay |
|
Then one day soldiers came, told us of the wars |
|
They told us we should join them and defend the holy cause |
|
Adventures that would lead far across the land and sea |
|
Sounded so amazing to an innocent like me |
|
Made it seem so easy like nothing could go wrong |
|
We thought we'd be away some time but never for so long |
|
Joined together wrote our names upon the page |
|
Seven times alliance our loyalty we gave |
|
Sworn to be united not divided for the |
|
King Who will ever know the honour that it brings ? |
|
So farewell to the |
|
Sacred Land that we call forever home |
|
Time will tell if we understand that we never walk alone |
|
Side by side to the east we ride with our purpose clear and true |
|
On we go, won't you join us too ? |
|
Had no way of knowing if we ever would return |
|
Would we see our loved ones or see more cities burn ? |
|
Holy land will fall if we don't stand our ground |
|
Jerusalem for evermore in darkness be adorned. |
