Soldiers of The Cross
We are soldiers of the cross,
Heeding the battle call;
Armed for spiritual warfare,
Standing firm and tall;
Lifting high God's banner,
His Spirit our shield and sword,
Bearing in our bodies,
The marks of our crucified Lord.
Following the risen Saviour,
Obeying His precious Word,
Shining the Light of the Gospel
Till all the world has heard.
Let us never be discouraged,
Though darker grows the night,
As Satan's time is running out,
Brighter glows the Light.
And when the battle here is ended,
With time on earth no more,
We'll celebrate the victory
On that bright celestial shore.
"Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ."
"Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus,
that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body."
(II Tim.2:3) (II Cor.4:10)
