A tired and weary soldier
Has fought the battle true
Now lays down his weapons
His fighting is all through
His record stands in honor
Among the very best
Hears the master whisper
It's time for you to rest
A hero for Jesus
Is what I'd like to be
And fight the mighty battle
Against the enemy
And when I get to heaven
Will be a great reward
I want to be a hero
In the service of the Lord
There stands among the angels
A soldier brave and true
Has no earthly medals
To show what he's been through
With a shield of faith as armor
And a Bible for a sword
My dad became a hero
In the service of the Lord
A hero for Jesus
Is what I'd like to be
And fight the mighty battle
Against the enemy
And when I get to heaven
Will be a great reward
I want to be a hero
In the service of the Lord
Wounded soldier
Pick up your weapons
Lets fight the battle
We're not alone
For the angels
Are camped around us
We're not defeated
We'll soon be home
Has fought the battle true
Now lays down his weapons
His fighting is all through
His record stands in honor
Among the very best
Hears the master whisper
It's time for you to rest
A hero for Jesus
Is what I'd like to be
And fight the mighty battle
Against the enemy
And when I get to heaven
Will be a great reward
I want to be a hero
In the service of the Lord
There stands among the angels
A soldier brave and true
Has no earthly medals
To show what he's been through
With a shield of faith as armor
And a Bible for a sword
My dad became a hero
In the service of the Lord
A hero for Jesus
Is what I'd like to be
And fight the mighty battle
Against the enemy
And when I get to heaven
Will be a great reward
I want to be a hero
In the service of the Lord
Wounded soldier
Pick up your weapons
Lets fight the battle
We're not alone
For the angels
Are camped around us
We're not defeated
We'll soon be home
