He stands on the corner
Holding a cardboard sign
It says wounded soldier
Could you please spare a dime?
He never tells his story
Of what led him to this place
A lost and broken warrior
Who bows his head and prays
CHORUS:
Lord, I need a pa-ra-chute
To lift me up
I've done all I can do
But I'm not strong enough
Give me hope to hang on to
When the storms roll in
I need a parachute
To help me fly again
His Guardian Angel
Waved him off to (war)
But when she met her maker
Nothing mattered (anymore)
A man without a mission
Surrenders to his fate
Asking God to listen
To what he has to say
Lord, I need a pa-ra-chute
To lift me up
I've done all I can do
But I'm not strong enough
Give me hope to hang on to
When the storms roll in
I need a parachute
To help me fly again
Lord, I need a pa-ra-chute
To lift me up
I've done all I can do
But I'm not strong enough
Give me hope to hang on to
When the storms roll in
I need a parachute
To help me fly again
