I'm a Solder

1 A soldier in the army of the King of kings am I,
He called me to His colors and for Him I'll live or die;
I'll go where'er He bids me and I'll do His least command,
Beneath the banner of the cross I gladly take my stand.

Chorus:
I'm a soldier in the army,
And the call to battle loudly rings;
I'm a soldier in the army,
In the army of the King of kings.

2 The battle fierce is raging over land and over sea,
Wherever men have borne the news of Christ and Calvary;
The fight for souls must not be lost - I cannot falter, no!
But in the strength of Christ my Lord I'll only forward go. [Chorus]

3 Some day the battle will be over, victory will come -
I wonder if I'll share the full reward awaiting some;
Will I have battle scares to show in heaven when we meet?
How many crowns and trophies will I cast at Jesus' feet? [Chorus]
