A Few Old Battle Scars ft. Rebecca Ray Lyrics

I was born in trenches, I'm no stranger to the war

I became fevered with the battle, as I found what we were fighting for

There came a wound that hurt so deeply

I feared my mind forever marred

Then Jesus touched and he healed completely

Not destroyed, just slightly scarred

A few old battle scars remind the soldier of where he's been

A purple heart upon his chest, a hard-fought battle against sin

A few scrapes in the last fight, but not our last fight, not by far

Another trophy for the king of kings, a few old battle scars

You can get down in the battle, don't give up, just call on him

No matter what the odds are, reinforcements he will send

And the wound will not be mortal, defeat lies forever more

As you stand and count your victories, just counting the battle scars

It's a few old battle scars reminds the soldier of where he's been

A purple heart upon his chest, a hard-fought battle against him

A few scrapes in the last fight, but not our last fight, not by far

Another trophy for the king of kings, and a few old battle scars

A few scrapes in the last fight, but not our last fight, not by far

Oh, what joy winning the battle brings

Sounds of triumph in my ears still ring

Another trophy for the king of kings, and a few old battle scars
