I am tired of life's battle I am a weary of the din, Of the flash and roar and rattle Of the musketry of sin.
Yet I am trusting that the righteous Will conquer in the fight That is waged forever round me By the wrong against the right.
I am weeping for the wounded, I am thinking of the dead, As I hear the phantom footfalls And the never ending tread Of the army that now bivouacs In the region of the dead Killed in battle that surrounds me And now fills my soul with dread.
I Am Tired of Life's B
...attle 65 I am hoping for the future, With a hope that's filled with dread As I see the hosts of sin advance And hear the steady tread Of the army of the damned and lost Who too often have been lead To victory and perdition By the captains of the dead.
I am praying that the cross of Christ Will conquer in the strife Where the issue is salvation And the goal eternal life.
I am hoping, I am trusting, With a heart that's turned to lead As I hear the ghostly footfalls Of the dying and the dead.
I am walking down life's highway, Full of hope and full of dread, As I hear the phantom footfalls Of the army of the dead, But sometimes in my dreams at night I have been gently lead I Am Tired of Life's Battle To hear the cry of victory, From the dying and the dead.
