Backyard soldiers, little boys
We fought the enemy with little toys
Sticks for swords, hands for guns
Every battle always won.

But as we grew and went our way
We forgot about our soldier days
No more swords, no more guns
No more battles to be won.

But we were wrong
We did not see we still had an enemy
So now we stand Friend with friend
We are soldiers once again.

We are soldiers again
In the army of the Lord
We are soldiers again
And His Word is our sword
We will not be denied with Him by our side
We know the victory we'll win
We will fight till the end
Soldiers again.

And we still can't even see the one we are fighting
But we stand with One who can, the Lord God Almighty.

We are soldiers again
In the army of the Lord
We are soldiers again
And His Word is our sword
We will not be denied with Him by our side
We know the victory we'll win
We will fight till the end
Soldiers again.
