They are standing by the shore
They wait for the command, "Commence attack!"
All their families back home
All they ever want is to have them back
But they have a duty and a pride
And they will never give up on them
Secure your weapon and your mind
Stand up straight, be ready to fight
We are at war
'Cause a soldier is walking through bullets and pain
He does what he must, his honor is at stake
He fights for his nation, he's the pride of the declaration
He is a soldier at heart
Fight hard, no retreat
Do your training right and you will succeed
When the bombs are blowing at your feet
You lose a fellow man, you will still proceed
When the captain's screaming out in rage
"Stand up soldier get in place, no turning back"
Lock and load, here they go
Hoist the colors, off they go
They are at war
'Cause a soldier is walking through bullets and pain
He does what he must, his honor is at stake
He fights for his nation, he's the pride of the declaration
He is a soldier at heart
They are fighting a war overseas
And there is a chance they won't come back
Hear the preacher saying, "Heaven's got their back
The angels are marching by their side
God is with them when they fight"
'Cause a soldier is walking through bullets and pain
He does what he must, his honor is at stake
He fights for his nation, he's the pride of the declaration
He's a soldier at heart
He's a soldier at heart
