This Is My Son Lyrics

My only son, goes off to war,
He's unafraid, to live and die for,
For people who don't,
Even know who he is,
And I understand now just what You did,

'cause
[Chorus]
This is my son, my only son,
And I give him up for a people who don't,
Care that they're free,
At the cost of his life,
I understand now Your sacrifice,
You gave us Yours, and I give them mine,
Lord keep him safe he is my only child,
Please bring him back home,
This is my son

I watched him grow into a man,
And I must believe, he is now in Your hands,
Lord help me to keep, in front of my mind,
That You gave Your Son so that mine would have life,

[Chorus]

This is my son, my only son,
And I give him up for a people who don't,
Care that they're free at the cost of his life,
I understand now your sacrifice,

[Chorus]
