R Kelly - Soldier's Heart lyrics

All hope was gone

Hard to hang on

Hard to be strong

Was blind, could not see

Nothing but walls in front of me

And inside no peace

And the mountains seemed impossible to climb

Until you stood on the front line

You led the way

Out of the darkness

We didn't go astray

You were ready to die for our sake

And that, that takes a soldier's heart

Oceans so deep

Uphill, so steep

But still we believe

And when the road was too far to travel

Heroes, you cared, you came and carried us there

And the mountains seemed impossible to climb

Until you stood on the front line

You led the way

Out of the darkness

We didn't go astray

You were ready to die for our sake

And that takes a soldier's heart

And so our flag was still there

All because you decided to care

Our burden to bear

You stood on the front line

You led the way

Right out of the darkness

Didn't go astray

You were ready to die for our sake

And that takes

You stood on the front line

You led the way

Right out of the darkness, hey

You could have let us go astray

You were ready to die for our sake

And that takes a soldier's heart

Whoa, that takes a soldier's heart, hey

It takes a soldier's heart
