hold on old soldier

Singer:walter hawkins

don't worry tired soldier

you have the lord's shoulder

to lean upon when you feel weak

and you'll never grow weary

give your strength to him

you may be feeling a little discouraged

or just looking for some kind of sign

to reassure you that he's not forgotten

but remember your past whenever you ask

he was right there. right there to carry you through

right there opening doors for you

faithful in every way

so hold on old soldier

hold on old soldier

hold on old soldier

when you get up off of your knees

and the world you must face

remember the angels of god

surrounds you by his grace

your heart may be aching

but he's sitting there waiting

you're wondering what to do

then the lord said to you

i'm right here."
