He blesses the boys as they stand in line
They smell of gun grease and their bayonets they shine
He's there to help them all that he can
To make them feel wanted, he's a good holy man

The order is given, they move down the line
But he stay'll [sic] behind and he'll meditate
But it won't stop the bleeding or ease the hate

Hopes the men will find courage in the words that he said

Verse 4:

You're soldiers of God, you must understand
The fate of your country is in your young hands
May God give you strength, do your job real well
If it all was worth it, only time it will tell

Verse 5:

In the morning they returned with tears in their eyes
The stench of death drifts up to the skies
A young soldier so ill looks at the Sky Pilot
Remembers the words, "Thou shalt not kill"

[repeat chorus, 2X]
