“Unbroken” Feat. The Invictus Games Choir
Music and Lyrics By: Jon Bon Jovi
Directed by Alex Horwitz
Produced by Grasshopper Films

The Invictus Games Choir, which is managed and delivered by Help for Heroes, is made up of wounded, injured and sick veterans and serving personnel from all branches and different ranks of the UK Armed Forces, who come together and use the power of music to aid their recovery.

The Invictus Games Foundation is the international charity that oversees the development of the Invictus Games, an international adaptive multi-sport event in which wounded, injured or sick armed services personnel and veterans participate. It celebrates the power of sport in recovery and how it can help, physically or psychologically, those suffering from injuries or illness. The Duke, Patron of the Invictus Games Foundation, founded the Invictus Games with the first event taking part in London in 2014. Since then, the Games have been held three other times – in Orlando (2016), Toronto (2017) and Sydney (2018). The fifth Invictus Games, which was due to take place in The Hague in May this year, has been postponed until May/June 2021.

I WAS BORN TO BE OF SERVICE
BASIC TRAINING JUST FELT LIKE HOME
I HAD HONOR I FOUND PURPOSE
SIR YES SIR THAT’S WHAT I KNOW
THEY SENT US TO A PLACE
I NEVER HEARD OF WEEKS BEFORE
WHEN YOU’RE 19 IT AIN’T HARD TO SLEEP
IN THE DESERT ON GOD’S FLOOR
CLOSE YOUR EYES STOP COUNTING SHEEP
YOU AIN’T IN BASIC ANY MORE

WE WERE TAUGHT TO SHOOT OUR RIFLES
MEN AND WOMEN SIDE BY SIDE
THOUGHT WE’D BE MET AS LIBERATORS
IN A THOUSAND YEAR OLD FIGHT
I GOT THIS PAINFUL RINGING IN MY EAR
FROM AN IED LAST NIGHT
BUT NO LEAD LINED HUMVEE WAR MACHINE
COULD SAVE MY SERGEANTS LIFE
3 MORE SOLDIERS 6 CIVILIANS
NEED THESE WORDS TO COME OUT RIGHT

GOD OF MERCY, GOD OF LIGHT
SAVE YOUR CHILDREN FROM THIS LIFE
HEAR THESE WORDS
THIS HUMBLE PLEA
FOR I HAVE SEEN THE SUFFERING
AND WITH THIS PRAYER I’M HOPING
THAT WE CAN BE UNBROKEN

IT’S 18 MONTHS NOW I’VE BEEN BACK NOW
WITH THIS MEDAL ON MY CHEST
BUT THERE ARE THINGS I CAN’T REMEMBER
AND THERE ARE THINGS I WON’T FORGET
I LIE AWAKE AT NIGHT WITH DREAMS THE DEVIL SHOULDN’T SEE
I WANT TO SCREAM BUT I CAN’T BREATHE
AND CHRIST I’M SWEATING THROUGH THESE SHEETS

WHERE’S MY BROTHERS
WHERE’S MY COUNTRY
WHERE’S MY HOW THINGS USED TO BE

GOD OF MERCY, GOD OF LIGHT
SAVE YOUR CHILDREN FROM THIS LIFE
HEAR THESE WORDS
THIS HUMBLE PLEA
FOR I HAVE SEEN THE SUFFERING
AND WITH THIS PRAYER I’M HOPING
THAT WE CAN BE UNBROKEN

MY SERVICE DOGS DONE MORE FOR ME
THAN THE MEDICATION WOULD
THERE AIN’T NO ANGEL THAT’S COMING TO SAVE ME
BUT EVEN IF THEY COULD

TODAY 22 WILL DIE FROM SUICIDE
JUST LIKE YESTERDAY THEY’RE GONE
I LIVE MY LIFE FOR EACH TOMORROW
SO THEIR MEMORIES WILL LIVE ON
ONCE WE WERE BOYS AND WE WERE STRANGERS
NOW WE’RE BROTHERS AND WE’RE MEN
SOMEDAY YOU’LL ASK ME WAS IT WORTH IT
TO BE OF SERVICE IN THE END
WELL THE BLESSING AND THE CURSE IS YEAH, I’D DO IT ALL AGAIN
