Verse 1
When you are a soldier
I will be your shield
I will go with you into the battlefield
And when the arrows start to fly
Take my hand and hold on tight
I will be your shield
‘Cause I know how it feels
When you are a soldier
Verse 2
When you’re tired from running
I will cheer you on
Look beside you
And you’ll see you’re not alone
And when your strength is all but gone
I’ll carry you until you’re strong
And I will be your shield
‘Cause I know how it feels
When you’re a soldier
Chorus
I will be the one
You can cry your songs to
And my eyes will share your tears
And I’ll be your friend if you win
Or if you’re defeated
Whenever you need me, I will be here
Verse 3
When you’re lost in darkness
I will hold the light
I will help you find your way
Through the night
I’ll remind you of the truth
And keep the flame alive in you
And I will be your shield
‘Cause I know how it feels
When you are a soldier
Outro
And I will be your shield
‘Cause I know how it feels
When you are a soldier
