Lyrics
Lord, my heart is filled, with both sorrow, and pride
For all the wounded warriors, who put their lives out there on the line
I’m proud of national victory, but crushed at the great cost
To our patriotic young men and women, brave in spite of their loss
Wounded warrior lift your head high history will write of you, and how hard you have tried
I know that you’re out there, with a gun in your hand, fighting for something, most don’t understand
Father give me wisdom, to know their needs, as I lift them up in prayer
And to share, their painful plight, I know, what they do is right, I know, what they do is right
(chorus)
Young warriors, lift your head high, history will write of you, and how hard you have tried
(bridge)
Young warriors, I burst with pride, as I see you fight the fight, life is no fun, you had to kill someone
Patriotic young men, and women I salute you, wounded warrior, know how much I care
(bridge)
I know how hard you tried, to give the world, a better place...to live in, a better place to worship in A place to be free, and you gave what you gave, and you gave it for me, and I thank you wounded warrior
I can never forget, the price you paid, to keep me safe and free
(chorus)
Wounded warrior, lift your head high, history will write of you, and how hard you have tried
(Break)
Young warriors, I burst with pride, as I see you fight the fight, suddenly life is no fun, you had to kill someone
Wounded warrior, lift your head high, history will write of you, and how hard you have tried
