I was down in the trenches the enemy was near a young man was praying to help calm his fears...
I said,"Hold it down soldier, so the whole world can`t hear he turned to me and smiled and with a voice loud and clear...
He said,"Follow me brother this battle is won for God is my father and I... am his son
I froze when he stood up and started marching on singing a sweet song I hadn`t heard in so long
Amazing grace and memories came rushing back to me but nothing as amazing as what I was there to see...
He didn`t have a rifle just a Bible in his hand as the insults and the bullets went flying by this man...
He said,"Follow me brother, this battle is won for God is my father and I... am his son
Fighting back my tears I fell in with this man and why I`m here to tell you I`ll never understand...
But when the evil bullets finally found their mark the sun came falling down and eveything went dark...
The enemy went running so scared and confused the lightning lit my way to the soldier broke and bruised...
Through bursting shells of starlight he took me by the hand... and said,"The enemy stands no chance, against a well armed man...
He handed me his Bible his last words still ring true "You may not believe in God... but God believes in you!
Everything went quiet the sun was back in place my hands were now empty, tears falling from my face
There was noone with me the soldier boy was gone but I swear I heard Angels singing a heavenly song...
And in the wind an echo as I heard his voice again
He said,"Follow me brother, this battle is won for God is my father and I... am his son
Coda: Amazing Grace how sweet the sound... that saved a wretch like me... |
