Lyrics
Chorus
Many are the hearts that are weary tonight
Wishing for the war to cease
Many are the hearts looking for the right
To see the dawn of peace
Tenting tonight, tenting tonight
Tenting on the old Camp ground
Chorus
Many are the hearts that are weary tonight
Wishing for the war to cease
Many are the hearts looking for the right
To see the dawn of peace
Dying tonight, Dying tonight
Dying on the old Camp ground
