NO ONE IS LEFT BEHIND

I lay you down to sleep
Now the battle is won
Cradle you in my arms
You are God's chosen son
I'm the warrior St. Michael
Come to take you home
God gives you peace forever
You'll never be alone
(Chorus:)
Rise up
Take my hand
Get ready to leave this land
Rise up
No one is left behind
Rise up
Now it's your time
No one is left behind
Rise up
Rise up
Rise up
Gettysburg to San Juan Hill
Verdun to Normandy
You fought our country's battles
To make all people free
From Inchon to Vietnam
The great battle of Ia Drang
You gave your life for freedom
How those freedom bells rang
(Chorus)
I feel your beating heart
I see inside your soul
I'm the warrior St. Michael
Now it's time to go
Gods waiting at the gate
Telling us to come in
The angels are assembled
God gives you life again
(Chorus)
