The preacher bowed and turned to go
He threw some dirt into a hole
He wasn't needed anymore, oh ohHe shrugged and cast away the cold
He rearranged his preachers clothes
The word of God is all he knowsPrecious boy so young and fair
Guarding castles in the air
Pretty flowers in sweet array
Picked to die and fade away(Message from Heaven)
Sun in the sky
(Message from Heaven)
News from on highGod bless the solder and his gun
Small sacrifice then justice done
He's every broken mothers sonPretty flowers in sweet array
Picked to die and fade away(Message from Heaven)
Sun in the sky
(Message from Heaven)
News from on High(Message from Heaven)
Oh the sun in the sky
(Message from Heaven)
Oh yeahMessage from Heaven
Message from Heaven
Message from HeavenHe threw some words into the air
He spoke the pain we all must share
How we will meet again out therePrecious boy so young and fair
Guarding castles in the air
Pretty flowers in sweet array
Picked to die and fade awayPrecious boy so young and fair
Guarding castles in the air
Pretty flowers in sweet array
Picked to die and fade away
