Star Spangled Heaven - Conway Twitty

Over the battle fields

Of all the great wars

Since the beginning of

Time Have walked perhaps

The bravest heroes of

Them all

The men known simply

By the soldiers as the Chaplain

And this is the story

Of but one of the many

And many thousands who

Gave his life in the service

Of his God and his country

There's a star spangled

Heaven for every soldier boy

Who fights to keep our

Country clean and free

So soldier trust in Jesus

Let him fill your heart with joy

He'll stand by you

Throughout eternity

An old old army chaplain who

Was stooped and bent with years

Was walkin' o'er the battle

Field his old eyes filled with tears

He was searching for the wounded

To try to ease their pain

And for those he knew would never

Live to rise and fight again

For life for them was over their

Earthly cares were done

They had gone to meet their

Saviour their battle had been won

And I couldn't help but notice

As he went from place to place

That each soldier boy had died

Fighting with a smile upon his face

And I saw him kneel beside each

One and slowly breathe the prayer

While the tears were streamin'

Down his face

And the wind blew through his hair

And I could hear the big guns

Boomin' o'er the hill and not too far away

And as I turned to leave him

That's when I heard him say

There's a star spangled heaven

For every soldier boy

Who fights to keep our country

Clean and free

So soldier trust in Jesus let

Him fill your heart with joy

He'll stand by you

Throughout eternity

Though days and month and even years

Have slowly drifted by

And all we have are the mem'ries

Of our boys who have to die

They're living with their

Saviour beyond the crystal sea

In the Star Spangled Heaven

Throughout eternity
