Soldier On Lyrics - Kurt Carr

To every christian soldier who's ever gotten weary from the battle of life, let me remind you that Jesus is your captain 

and because he is your captain you cannot fail, you can't retreat, you can't give up, your assignment is not over, God's got work for you to do so soldier on 

Soldier on(2x) 

When it seems like you're losing and the battle's not worth fighting 

You must carry on, carry on 

(Remember)Failure's not an option 

When Jesus is your captain 

Soldier, you can't retreat 

You must soldier on 

(Some soldier listening to me is experiencing the agony of heartache) 

Soldier on(2x) 

(Sometimes the people you trust, they are the ones that hurt you the most) 

Someone you trust in betrayed you so 

It seems the pain will never go 

But you must carry on(you gotta carry on)carry on 

(But you gotta find the strength to get up, come out of that depression) 

You'll overcome, you'll be alright 

If you can just endure the night 

Soldier you can't retreat 

You must soldier on 

Soldier on(2x) 

You lost your loved one and it hurts you 

Don't let the pain and grief destroy you 

But you must carry on, carry on 

You'll see the one you love again on the other side in Heaven 

Soldier you can't retreat 

You must soldier on 

I know you must get tired, I know you must get weary 

But you've fought too long and hard to forfeit your victory 

I know you must get tired and so weary 

Just don't ever give up even though you get tired 

Ask your father for courage 

and square your shoulders faithful 

Soldier the battle's not over 

Square your shoulder and Soldier on 

You can't retreat, you must soldier on 

With God on your side, you will never fail(2x) 

oh....With God on your side, the victory will prevail 

Soldier, the battle's not over 

You can't retreat, you must soldier 

Soldier on(2X) 

You'll overcome, put your faith in God 

Soldier on(2X) 

You'll overcome, put your faith in God 

Soldier on(2X) 

You'll overcome, put your faith in God 

Soldier on(2X) 

You'll overcome, put your faith in God 

Soldier the battle's not over 

Square your shoulders and soldier on 

You can't retreat, you must soldier on 

You'll overcome but you must soldier on
