Song by Steven Curtis Chapman<br /><br>

When you are a soldier I will be your shield<br>

I will go with you into the battlefield<br>

And when the arrows start to fly<br>

Take my hand and hold on tight<br>

I will be your shield, 'cause I know how it feels<br>

When you are a soldier<br>

<br>

When you're tired from running<br>

I will cheer you on<br>

Look beside you and you'll see you're not alone<br>

And when your strength is all but gone<br>

I'll carry you until you're strong<br>

And I will be your shield 'cause I know how it feels<br>

When you're a soldier<br>

<br>

I will be the one you can cry your songs to<br>

My eyes will share your tears<br>

And I'll be your friend if you win<br>

Or if you're defeated<br>

Whenever you need me I will be here<br>

<br>

When you're lost in darkness I will hold the light<br>

I will help you find your way through the night<br>

I'll remind you of the truth<br>

And keep the flame alive in you<br>

And I will be your shield<br>

'Cause I know how it feels<br>

When you are a soldier<br>

<br>
