'Cross the Green Mountain (from 'Gods and Generals' OST)

I cross the green mountain

I sit by the stream

Heaven blazing in my head

I, I dreamt a monstrous dream

Something came up

Out of the sea

Swept through the land of

The rich and the free

I look into the eyes

Of my merciful friend

And then I ask myself

Is this the end?

Memories linger

Sad yet sweet

And I think of the souls

In heaven who will be

Alters are burning

The flames far and wide

The foe has crossed over

From the other side

They tip their caps

From the top of the hill

You can feel them come

All brave blood do spill

Along the dim

Atlantic line

The rapper's land

Lasts for miles behind

The lights coming forward

And the streets are broad

All must yield

To the avenging God

The world is old

The world is great

Lessons of life

Can't be learned in a day

I watch and I wait

And I listen while I stand

To the music that comes

From a far better land

Close the eyes of our captain

Peace may he know

His long night is done

The great leader is laid low

He was ready to fall

He was quick to defend

Killed outright he was

By his own men

It's the last day's last hour

Of the last happy year

I feel that the unknown

The world is so dear

Pride will vanish

And glory will rot

But virtue lives

And cannot be forgot

The bells

Of evening have rung

There's blasphemy

On the end of the tongue

Let them say that I walked

In fair nature's light

And that I was loyal

To truth and to right

Serve God and meet your full

Look upward beyond

Beyond the darkness that masks

The surprises of dawn

In the deep green grasses

And the blood stained woods

They never dreamed of surrendering

They fell where they stood

Stars fell over Alabama

I saw each star

You're walking in dreams

Whoever you are

Chilled are the skies

Keen is the frost

The ground's froze hard

And the morning is lost

A letter to mother

Came today

Gunshot wound to the breast

Is what it did say

But he'll be better soon

He's in a hospital bed

But he'll never be better

He's already dead

I'm ten miles outside the city

And I'm lifted away

In an ancient light

That is not of day

They were calm, they were gloomed

We knew them all too well

We loved each other more than

We ever dared to tell

end.
