Sacrifice

To the unknown soldier...

To the unknown soldier in the unmarked grave

From the children for whom your sacrifice was made

You freely laid down your life to defend our faith

As freely as the tears now roll down my face

Chorus:

To the fallen fathers and the fallen sons

Who never lived to hear the still of the guns

In a war that would end all wars

But brother against brother is no real cause

A mans inner strenght is revealed when he looses all

He would gladly die to save his land from a fall

In that senseless war that had no real end

Bare hands against tanks but still he defend

We salute you all, my fallen brothers

We have pride in this land that your blood covers

We will continue to fight in your honour

Unknown soldier we will free the new tomorrow

I have seen the massed graves left in the east

I've heard the ruttures claim they only fought for peace

I know war is war and a lot is better left untold

But it's true the red army they only fought for the gold

To the unknown soldier laying in an unmarked grave

From us, the newborn, we hope to be as brave

You are our inspiration and we will avenge your fall

I will freely lay down my life I've heard the call
