Conway Twitty - Star Spangled Heaven lyrics
(Spoken) Over the battle fields of all the great wars Since the beginning of time Have walked perhaps The bravest heroes of them all. The men known simply by the soldiers as the Chaplain. And this is the story of but one of the many And many thousands who gave his life in the service Of his God and his country. (Sang) There's a star spangled heaven for every soldier boy Who fights to keep our country clean and free So soldier trust in Jesus let him fill your heart with joy He'll stand by you throughout eternity. (Spoken) An old, old army chaplain who was stooped and bent with years Was walkin' o'er the battle field his old eyes filled with tears. He was searching for the wounded to try to ease their pain And for those he knew would never live to rise and fight again. For life for them was over their earthly cares were done They had gone to meet their Saviour their battle had been won. And I couldn't help but notice as he went from place to place That each soldier boy had died fighting with a smile upon his face. And I saw him kneel beside each one and slowly breathe the prayer While the tears were streamin' down his face And the wind blew through his hair. And I could hear the big guns boomin' o'er the hill and not too far away And as I turned to leave him that's when I heard him say. (Sang) There's a star spangled heaven for every soldier boy Who fights to keep our country clean and free So soldier trust in Jesus let him fill your heart with joy He'll stand by you throughout eternity. (Spoken) Though days and month and even years Have slowly drifted by And all we have are the mem'ries Of our boys who have to die. They're living with their Saviour beyond the crystal sea In the Star Spangled Heaven throughout eternity... |
