Canadian Soldier 1. He was a brave Canadian soldier And he was young and he was strong He never shied away from danger Some say it’s right, some say it’s wrong 2. His noble heart would not surrender The night grew fierce, some hid, some cried Come morning light, will they remember? The way he fought, the way he died. 3. In foreign lands, the wind is sighing The rain has come and washed away The tears that fell while he lay dying A mother’s child has passed away 4. So bow your head, and stand in silence Then lift your eyes and sing the song About a brave, Canadian soldier The gift he gave, the life that’s gone. 5. He was a brave Canadian soldier And he was young and he was strong He never shied away from danger Some say it’s right, some say it’s wrong.
