Kenny Rogers - A Soldier's King Lyrics
None seemed to notice the man beside the roadHe was just a raged soldier out there in the coldBut he seemed to have a purpose only known to himAs he walked along the streets that night through the town of Bethlahem.In his head he held a memory of all the wars he'd knownIn his hand he clutched a medal for the bravery he'd shownAnd the weight of every battle he caried in his heartBut his eyes were clear and searching for a manger in the dark.Chorus:Some are born to greatness, some are born to fallSome are bound to be forgotten like they never lived at allBut we're all born to know Him and stand befor His lightLike the soldier who found his king tonight.He had marched for politicians, served under their commandAnd he fought for all the causes that he did not understandBut it was something deep inside him now that led him on his wayWith a single star to guide him to were the baby lay.Chorus:Some are born to greatness, some are born to fallSome are bound to be forgotten like they never lived at allBut we're all born to know Him and stand befor His lightLike the soldier who found his king tonight.He stood before the Son of God, come to pay our debtHe smiled up at the soldier that the world would soon forgetSo he held out his medal and said this for you I bringThere he swore aligiance to the newborn baby King.Chorus:Some are born to greatness, some are born to fallSome are bound to be forgotten like they never lived at allBut we're all born to know Him and stand befor His lightLike the soldier who found his king tonight...
