His name was never printed in the paper until about two days ago
He only filed a short form for his taxes no one asked him how he felt about the war
He always had a good word for his neighbor
Now his good words won't be heard anymore
And through the rain I heard the choir singing (Nearer my God to Thee)
Through the mist I saw some children crying and I felt nearer my God to Thee

But the tears on the faces of his family were just as real as if he been a king
Preacher said he'd always been a good man

But the tears I tasted gave his words new meaning
Watching old friends puttin' daddy in the ground
And through the rain I heard...
