And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong.

Soon, soon to faithful warriors comes their rest:
Sweet is the calm of paradise the blest.

The saints triumphant rise in bright array;
The King of glory passes on His way.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
8 From earth's wide bounds, from ocean's farthest coast,
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Alleluia! Alleluia!

Am I a Soldier of the Cross
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #511 (1989) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Sanctifiying and Perfecting Grace Strength in Triublation; Courage; Zeal Lyrics: 1. Am I a soldier of the cross,
a follower of the Lamb,
and shall I fear to own his cause,
or blush to speak his name?
2. Must I be carried to the skies
on flowery beds of ease,
while others fought to win the prize,
and sailed through bloody seas?
3. Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
to help me on to God?
4. Sure I must fight, if I would reign;
increase my courage, Lord.
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
supported by thy word.
5. Thy saints in all this glorious war
shall conquer, though they die;
they see the triumph from afar,
by faith they bring it nigh.
6. When that illustrious day shall rise,
and all thy armies shine
in robes of victory through the skies,
the glory shall be thine.

for we are sure, embraced and safe
within your love, our loved one lives.
