Songtext This is my son Cherryholmes

This is my son

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
