Voices of Praise ‎#332

332. Soldiers who to Christ belong

1 Soldiers who to Christ belong,
Trust ye in His word, be strong;
For His promises are sure,
His rewards for aye endure.

2 His no crowns that pass away;
His no palm that sees decay;
His the joy that shall not fade:
His the light that knows no shade.

3 His the Home for spirits blest,
Where He gives them peaceful rest,
Far above the starry skies,
In the bliss of Paradise.

4 Here on earth ye can but clasp
Things that perish in the grasp;
Lift your hearts then to the skies;
God Himself shall be your prize.

5 Praise we now with saints at rest,
Father, Son and Spirit blest;
For His promises are sure,
His rewards shall aye endure.

Amen.
