The King of Glory ‎#191

191. I Am a Soldier

1 I am a soldier, enlisted for the King;
And to the battle my life, my all I bring;
Nor will I aught withhold,
From Him whose love untold
Has made me free from stain of sin.

Refrain:
We are soldiers of the King,
‘Neath His banner we will stand,
Fight is won, the march is done,
And we possess the land.

2 My captain tells me we’ll win the victory,
And I believe Him, and I will faithful be
Thro’ battles hard and long,
Until the victor’s song
My voice shall raise before His throne. [Refrain]

3 How great the joy then, when we the fight have won;
How sweet the rest then, when we the course have run;
Crown of rejoicing mine,
Not only mine, but thine,
And crowns us for His soldiers true. [Refrain]
