Soldier of Hope

[Chorus]
Oh, no, don't cry, it's in your heart
So dry those eyes, keep holding on
For your dear life, be a soldier of hope

[Verse 1]
There's been many reasons for a while to sit and cry
But now I know they're coming to an end
I've been fighting on the front lines, a soldier for the good times
Fighting for the freedom of my friends
My hands have felt suppression, a life of toil and blood
My heart has heard the soul cries of the poor
But now I'm coming home again and I'm never going away, my friend
I'm going to hold my head high ever more

[Chorus]
So I say, "Oh, no, don't cry, it's in your heart
So dry those eyes, keep holding on
For your dear life, be a soldier of hope"

[Verse 2]
I hung up my emotions for a campaign of the heart
But finally my heart has led me home
I leave the brutal truth behind and follow with a lighter mind
A man of hope and glory I've become

[Chorus]
So I say, "Oh, no, don't cry, it's in your heart
So dry those eyes, keep holding on
For your dear life, be a soldier of hope"
Oh, I say, "Oh, no, don't cry, it's in your heart
So dry those eyes, keep holding on
For your dear life, be a soldier of hope"

[Chorus]
Oh, I say, "Oh, no, don't cry, it's in your heart
So dry those eyes, keep holding on
For your dear life, be a soldier of hope"

[Outro]
Be a soldier of hope
