The Song Book of the Salvation Army ‎#822

822. We're the soldiers of the Army of salvation

1 We're the soldiers of the Army of salvation,
That God is raising now to save the world;
And we won’t lay down our arms till every nation
Shall have seen the flag of blood and fire unfurled.

Refrain:
We’re the Army that shall conquer,
As we go to seek the lost and to bring them back to God;
And his salvation to every nation
We will carry with the Jire and the blood.

2 Though the hosts of Hell and darkness all surround us,
By suffering and temptation we are tried,
But we know that not a foe can e’er confound us
While Jehovah’s mighty power is on our side.

3 So we’ll put our trust in God who ne’er will fail us,
We know that his salvation we shall see;
And through all the fighting, those who shall assail us
Shall be conquered through the blood of Calvary.
