Lyrics
The General
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Up he rose & forth they went
Into the battleground, fortress, tent
Mountains, wilderness, fielsd & farm
The soldier & the general arm in arm
Off they ride
Side by side
"Through the travail of ages
Midst the pomp & toils of war
Have I fought, strove and perished
Countless times under the stars
As it through a glass and darkly
The ageal stripe I see
I fought in many guises, many names
But it was always me..."
Off they ride
Side by side
I was there in...
Lived & died...
So up he rose & forth they went
Into the battleground, fortress, tent
Mountains, wilderness, fielsd & farm
The soldier & the general arm in arm
Off they ride
Side by side
