David Meece
The Unknown Soldier
[Verse 1]
You see him on the campus
As he studies with his friends
They mean no harm, they laugh
And call him preacher now and then
His words are few, he saves them
'Til he's home and on his knees
That's where he's a warrior
And he fights to see them free

[Chorus]
He's the unknown soldier
The unsung hero, the brother on the street
He's the unknown soldier
The holy warrior who will never sound retreat

[Post-Chorus]
He's your unseen comrade
And his triumph will be sweet
He's the unknown soldier
Unknown soldier

[Verse 2]
There's been no bloody torture
No burning at the stake
There'll be no published memoirs
No memorial for his sake
And no one calls him martyr
His blood has not been shed
Still, in combat, he's been faithful (Faithful)
In the little things instead
[Chorus]
He's the unknown soldier
The unsung hero, the brother on the street
He's the unknown soldier
The holy warrior who will never sound retreat

[Post-Chorus]
He's your unseen comrade
And his triumph will be sweet
He's the unknown soldier
Unknown soldier
(Unknown soldier)
(Holy Warrior)
(Oh)
Holy warrior, oh

[Chorus]
He's the unknown soldier
The unsung hero, the brother on the street
He's the unknown soldier
The holy warrior who will never sound retreat

[Post-Chorus]
He's your unseen comrade
And his triumph will be sweet
He's the unknown soldier (Unknown soldier)
Unknown soldier (Unknown soldier)
He's the unknown soldier
[Chorus]
He's the unknown soldier
The unsung hero, the brother on the street
He's the unknown soldier
The holy warrior who will never sound retreat

[Chorus]
He's the unknown soldier
The unsung hero, the brother on the street
He's the unknown soldier
The holy warrior who will never sound retreat

[Chorus]
He's the unknown soldier
The unsung hero, the brother on the street
He's the unknown soldier
The holy warrior who will never sound retreat
