One Soldier
One lonely soldier marching on
Afraid of what’s in store
She was in a battle for her life
Scared of facing more.
Her spirits soon were lifted
At the sight of something new
A fellow soldier joined her
They were an army of two.
Once again it happened
Someone joined them in the fight
And that first lonely soldier
Began to see some light.
Everywhere she looked now
There came a friendly face
More soldiers to join the battle
To see her through the race.
They came in every color
Both the young and the old
They stood together, side by side
Their spirits growing bold.
They would fight together faithfully
For this soldier was their friend
Supporting her through the battle
With a love that has no end.
