KATHERINE JENKINS SINGS REQUIEM FOR A SOLDIER

Most would recognize the theme song for the popular television series "Band Of Brothers" but many don't know the songs title is "Requiem For A Soldier" and it has very moving lyrics.
Katherine Jenkins has a beautiful voice and sings the song in the following video.



Katherine Jenkins - Requiem for a Soldier

You never lived to see
What you gave to me
One shining dream of hope and love
Life and liberty

With a host of brave unknown soldiers
For your company, you will live forever
Here in our memory

In fields of sacrifice
Heroes paid the price
Young men who died for old men's wars
Gone to paradise

We are all one great band of brothers
And one day you'll see we can live together
When all the world is free

I wish you'd lived to see
All you gave to me
Your shining dream of hope and love
Life and liberty

We are all one great band of brothers
And one day you'll see - we can live together
When all the world is free
