We are soldiers of Christ, who is mighty to save

Author: Thomas Benson Pollock, 1836-1896 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #440 (2010) Meter: 12.9.12.9 Topics: General Hymns Christian Warfare Lyrics: 1 We are soldiers of Christ, who is mighty to save, and his banner the cross is unfurled; we are pledged to be faithful and steadfast and brave against Satan, the flesh, and the world. 2 We are brothers and comrades, we stand side by side, and our faith and our hope are the same; and we think of the cross on which Jesus has died, when we bear the reproach of his name. 3 At the font we were marked with the cross on our brow, of our grace and our calling the sign; and the weakest is strong to be true to his vow, for the armour we wear is divine. 4 We will watch ready armed if the tempter draw near, if he comes with a frown or a smile; we will heed not his threats, nor his flatteries hear, nor be taken by storm or by wile. 5 We will master the flesh, and its longings restrain, we will not be the bond-slaves of sin, the pure Spirit of God in our nature shall reign, and our spirits their freedom shall win. 6 For the world’s love we live not, its hate we defy, and we will not be led by the throng; we’ll be true to ourselves, to our Father on high, and the bright world to which we belong. 7 Now let each cheer his comrade, let hearts beat as one, while we follow where Christ leads the way; ’twere dishonour to yield, or the battle to shun, we will fight, and will watch, and will pray. 8 Though the warfare be weary, the trial be sore, in the might of our God we will stand; Oh! What joy to be crowned and be pure evermore, in the peace of our own fatherland. Languages: English Tune Title: MILITES

Like Him, with pardon on his tongue In midst of mortal pain, He prayed for them that did the wrong: Who follows in His train? 3 A glorious band, the chosen few On whom the Spirit came, Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew, And mocked the cross and flame: They met the tyrant's brandished steel, The lion's gory mane; They bowed their necks the death to feel: Who follows in their turn? 4 A noble army, men and boys, The matron and the maid, Around the Saviour's throne rejoice, In robes of light arrayed. They climbed the steep ascent of heav'n Through peril, toil, and pain; O God, to us may grace be giv'n To follow in their train! Amen.
