Classic song about the one who would lay down his life for a friend, Jesus and a Soldier!

Lyrics

Scars and stripes

We all start out young
But not all grow old
We all know someone
If the truth be told

We don’t know the reasons
But we know the whys
We only pass the seasons
Until we say goodbye

But only one man
would lay down his life
He was born to die
a living sacrifice

Between the scars and stripes
They gave their all
A human sacrifice
Lord they answered the call
Rejected by some
A hero to few
Who would lay down their life
Jesus, a soldier, that’s who

Fighting the good fight
For what they believe
No matter wrong or right
They protect the weak

Many never return
Lost without a cause
Far from home
Great is the cost

But only one man
would lay down his life
He was born to die
a living sacrifice

Between the scars and stripes
They gave their all
A human sacrifice
Lord they answered the call
Rejected by some
A hero to few
Who would lay down their life
Jesus, a soldier, that’s who

No greater love than him
to lay down his life for a friend
No greater love than he
To die for you and me

Between the scars and stripes
They gave their all
A human sacrifice
Lord they answered the call
Rejected by some
A hero to few
Who would lay down their life
Jesus, a soldier, that’s who

Between the scars and stripes
They gave their all
A human sacrifice
Lord they answered the call
Rejected by some
A hero to few
Who would lay down their life
Jesus, a soldier, that’s two
