Marching On



A friend of mine signed this song at my college's talent show this past weekend.
It was the first time that I had heard it.
But, it almost brought me to tears.
I may be broken, I may be struggling, I may be fighting a war that I can't see the end of, but with God and those He's placed around me, I will keep marching.
This is not the end.
There is something greater coming.


For those days we felt like a mistake,
Those times when love’s what you hate, 
Somehow, 
We keep marching on. 
For those nights when I couldn’t be there, 
I’ve made it harder to know that you know, 
That somehow, 
We’ll keep moving on. 
There’s so many wars we fought, 
There’s so many things we’re not, 
But with what we have, 
I promise you that, 
We’re marching on, 
(We’re marching on) 
(We’re marching on). 
For all of the plans we’ve made, 
There isn’t a flag I’d wave, 
Don’t care if we bend, 
I’d sink us to swim, 
We’re marching on, 
(We’re marching on) 
(We’re marching on). 
For those doubts that swirl all around us, 
For those lives that tear at the seams, 
We know, 
We’re not what we’ve seen, 
For this dance we’ll move with each other. 
There ain’t no other step than one foot, 
Right in front of the other. 
There’s so many wars we fought, 
There’s so many things we’re not, 
But with what we have, 
I promise you that, 
We’re marching on, 
(We’re marching on) 
(We’re marching on). 
For all of the plans we’ve made, 
There isn’t a flag I’d wave, 
Don’t care if we bend, 
I’d sink us to swim, 
We’re marching on, 
(We’re marching on) 
(We’re marching on). 
Right, right, right, right left right, 
Right, right, right, right left right, 
Right, right, We’re marching on. 
We’ll have the days we break, 
And we’ll have the scars to prove it, 
We’ll have the bonds that we save, 
But we’ll have the heart not to lose it. 
For all of the times we’ve stopped, 
For all of the things I’m not. 
We put one foot in front of the other, 
We move like we ain’t got no other, 
We go when we go, 
We’re marching on. 
There’s so many wars we fought, 
There’s so many things we’re not, 
But with what we have, 
I promise you that, 
We’re marching on, 
(We’re marching on) 
(We’re marching on). 
Right, right, right, right left right, 
Right, right, right, left, right, 
Right, right, 
We’re marching on. 
Right, right, right, right left right, 
Right, right, right, left, right, 
Right, right, 
We’re marching on.
