Lyrics
A Soldier's Call Copyright © 2009 Becky Monnier/Nadia Cripps/Billy Playle Lyrics by Becky Monnier, music by Nadia Cripps and Billy Playle. V1 My eyes filled up with tears When I heard them on the phone They said he was a hero But he won't be coming home I'm sorry for my selfish need To want him here with me I'm sure that where he is now Is a better place to be Chorus: In the midst of heavy fighting, someone called his name It must have been an angel; he's feeling no more pain His spirit drifts above the clouds, no more need to fight The angels came to lead him into the shining light V2 His life had much more meaning With pride in his uniform He saved the broken and bleeding And braved the enemy storm This group of men like brothers Came against a fire wall He had to save the others It was a soldier's call Chorus In the midst of heavy fighting, someone called his name It must have been an angel; he's feeling no more pain His spirit drifts above the clouds, no more need to fight The angels came to lead him into the shining light The heavens opened for him, to wait there for us all Because the angels answered this fallen soldier's call.
