"Soldier" lyrics

"Soldier"

Hallelujah (I will be there)
Hallelujah (I will be there)
I'm going to be a soldier, Hallelujah
Hallelujah (Oh I'll be there)
Hallelujah (Oh I'll be there)
I'm going to be a soldier, Hallelujah

Hey old Delilah, righteous vine
More will I stray, no more
Well I wander in times so hard
Carry on, carry on alone or together

I can't wait, I can't run anymore
Can't sleep
That's what I get for doing wrong all of my life
You need a soldier lord
I didn't know I'd be raining

Hallelujah (I will be there)
Hallelujah (I will be there)
I'm going to be a soldier, Hallelujah
Behold the light, branches fine
Draws a line, here to the heavens

I can't wait, I can't run anymore
Can't sleep
That's what I get for doing wrong all of my life
You need a soldier lord
I never knew I would be there

Hallelujah (I will be there)
Hallelujah (I will be there)
I'm going to be a soldier, Hallelujah
Hallelujah (I will be there)
Hallelujah (I will be there)
I'm going to be a soldier, Hallelujah
And that's what I get for doing wrong all of my life
