492. Stay in the Field

Refrain:
Stay in the field, O brethren,
Stay in the field, O sisters,
Stay in the field, O brethren,
Till the war is ended,

1 God calls for volunteers to fight,
Till the war is ended,
To shun all sin and do the right,
Till the war is ended. [Refrain]

2 You, too, may join this army grand,
Till the war is ended,
And with the soldiers of my Jesus stand,
Till the war is ended. [Refrain]

3 Come, pitch your tent on the camp ground,
Till the war is ended,
And with the army of the Lord be found,
Till the war is ended. [Refrain]

4 O sinner, you would better pray,
Till the war is ended,
It won't be long until the judgment day,
Till the war is ended. [Refrain]

5 Come, seek the Lord with all your heart,
Till the war is ended,
And choose in Jesus that better part,
Till the war is ended. [Refrain]

6 I'm going to fight until I die,
Till the war is ended,
Until I reach my home on high,
Till the war is ended. [Refrain]
