On through the night we march Heavy load upon our heathen hearts The war goes on and on and on My nights are cold and I'll always wait for the changer of days Holy man, it's not too late [Chorus:] We're gonna shine like the morning star, forever and ever 'Cause we were chosen to fight in the freedom war So carry on, carry on Now I sit here in loneliness Long ago I fought the civil war I feel it's the point of no return The time is now but I stand alone with the voices inside General, I wonder why [Chorus] [Lead: J. Nordlund] On through the night we march Heavy load upon our heathen hearts The war goes on and on and on My nights are cold and I'd like to sleep for the rest of my days A Judas kiss and then farewell [Chorus]
