| Text: | Who Will Be a Soldier? |
| Author: | Mrs. M. Mills Newton |
| Tune: | [Who Will Be a Soldier] |
| Composer: | E. S. Lorenz |
1 Who will be a soldier?
Who will now enlist?
Who will fight God’s battles,
And his foes resist?
Who will be a soldier?
Fighting ‘gainst the wrong?
Tho’ you’re young and timid,
He can make you strong.
Refrain:
I will be a soldier, soldier of the King;
I will be a soldier, loyal service bring;
I will be a soldier, high his banner fling;
Sure that with my Captain I shall vict’ry win.
2 Who will be a soldier,
Willing to obey
His commands, and follow
Where he leads the way?
Who will be a soldier,
Soldier of the Lord,
Seeking for his orders
In God’s Holy Word? [Refrain]
3 Who will be a soldier,
Valiant, firm, and true,
Loyal in his service,
Brave to dare and do?
Who will be a soldier,
Batt’ling for the right?
By his grace you’ll conquer,
If you bravely fight. [Refrain]
