God with us standing one by one Last letter home is done God with us sing the victory songs For honour god and fatherland
As time stands still who will remain who is the one to pass Did you resist while others fell or while they drowned in gas A generation fading like sand in an hour glass Young men in trenches gunfire shakes the ground
Did you want to die here were you one of them Was your wish to leave here to see your family again Did you ever had a doubt or had you been deceived Like millions of your comrades who never saw their homes again
God with us here in no mans land erase the best of youth God with us play the death march for the route down below
Not one to stop not one to hold In this hell men won`t grow old
God with us strong in faith we stand Handwritten on a yellowed group portrait Young men with carbines in their hands Still together carved in stone they lie
A generation damned to suffer working busy on a new world order One by one almost brothers no hope... and no mother
God with us heroes will be made But no hero will survive God with us don`t let us be downhearted Please let death come quick
God with us
Do you hear the silence now Where once thousand cannons spoke On the fields where the poppies grow A mother bemoans her son
