Gungor - God and Country lyrics

I was just a young girl when
They sent him off to war
Barely even knew what in
Hell he’s fighting for
Told me all the stories of
A world beyond the world
Scaled the tallest mountains
They braved a ragged sea
Lost a lot of souls just
To set the captives free
May have lost a father but they
Found a lot of oil

Gathered up our gods
Oh, we gathered up our guns
For the love of country
For our fathers and our sons

He was just a young man when
They sent him off to war
Barely even knew what in
Hell he’s fighting for
The battle for the land with
The strangers from the East
Descending from the mountains and
Rising from the sea
Monsters came with vengeance and took
My son from me
You can take my money, take my land
But not my son

Gathered up our gods
Oh, we gathered up our guns
For the love of country
For our fathers and our sons
Lost a lot of souls
Stained the killing ground with blood
Lord knows we won’t stop the
Fight until the battle’s won

God, we love our God
Oh, God we love our guns
For the love of country
For our fathers and our sons
Lost a lot of souls
Stained the killing ground with blood
Lord knows we won’t stop the
Fight until the battle’s won

Those who live by the gun, live by the gun
Die by the gun
