Hold On

de Joshua Alo

Cold ground was his bed and at night
Never knows a silent hour
A letter received from his wife he opens slowly
To savor the scent of a flower
Woman of his life informs him his child was born
At the top of the first hour
The next thing he knows he’s on the ground
First reaction from the claxon from the tower

Soldier hold on
You will see your child’s eyes
Soldier hold on
You will know your child’s cry
Soldier hold on now
Cold ground was her bed and at night
Never knows a silent hour
The nation calls her to serve

Even though she’s a single mother
Her child listens to a recording
Of his mother singing a prayer for her sweet darling
She said “the lord protects you; the lord will always be with you
No matter what you go through and
Darling hold on
You will see your momma soon
Darling hold on
I’m always there with you
Darling hold on now”

Before you judge, self righteous ones I’m talking to you…
Put yourself in the soldiers boot for 1 year, 2 years, 3 years
However long it takes you to feel their blood, sweat and tears
And have the wisdom to know
It’s not the soldier who makes the decisions no
But the leader and even the leader has a master
Open your eyes!
A father sleeps restlessly at night
Only hoping his son will come home for good this time
But duty calls and this is how life goes for the man singing this song
Oh mama, oh sisters…
Your gracious ways have raised much more than a simple soldier
Mavinga…thank you so much for teaching me what it means to love

And papa hold on
Please know your son is well
Mama hold on
The lord sent me an angel
Sisters hold on now
Mavinga hold on now
This song is dedicated to the service
Member and all their families
You’ve got the news on morning night and noon
Just hold on
