I’ll go, I’ll go, I’ll go I’ll go for you I’ll fight, I’ll fight, I’ll fight I’ll fight for you I’ll kill, I’ll kill, I’ll kill I’ll kill for you I will, I will, I will
I’ll go, I’ll go, I’ll go I’ll go for you I’ll fight, I’ll fight, I’ll fight I’ll fight for you I’ll die, I’ll die, I’ll die I’ll die for you I will, I will, I will
And if I die, I’ll die, I’ll die alone On some forgotten hill Abandoned by the mill All my blood will spring and spill I’ll thrash the air, then be still
You’ll wake with a start from a dream And know that I am gone You’ll feel it in your heart but not for very long
You’ll rise each day as planned Your will as your command And stand each Sunday A hymnal steady in your hand
And you’ll sing to yourself the rising, falling melody That you could never read Without the choir’s lead Still alone and lost indeed And your soul will not be free
I will go, I will go, I will go Into war's waters, I will wade And I will know without remorse Or regret the fairness of our trade
For you to live, I took your place A deal was made and I was paid And in gold as I was told With a place where my body could be laid
You will steer your life and die old in bed at home Surrounded by your peers Without suffering or fear Grandchildren far and near And none will shed a tear For their love no longer here
I’ll go, I’ll go, I’ll go I’ll go for you I will I’ll fight, I’ll fight, I’ll fight I’ll fight for you I will, I will, I will
I’ll kill, I’ll kill, I’ll kill I’ll kill for you I will I’ll die, I’ll die, I’ll die I’ll die for you I will, I will, I will
And if I die I’ll die, I’ll die alone Like Jesus on the cross My faith cannot be tossed My life will not be lost If my love comes across
