|
|
<p>We are soldiers of Christ, Who is mighty to save,<br>
|
|
And His banner the Cross is unfurled;<br>
|
|
We are pledged to be faithful and steadfast and brave<br>
|
|
Against Satan, the flesh, and the world.</p>
|
|
<p>We are brothers and comrades, we stand side by side,<br>
|
|
And our faith and our hope are the same;<br>
|
|
And we think of the Cross on which Jesus has died,<br>
|
|
When we bear the reproach of His Name.</p>
|
|
<p>At the font we were marked with the Cross on our brow,<br>
|
|
Of our grace and our calling the sign;<br>
|
|
And the weakest is strong to be true to his vow,<br>
|
|
For the armor we wear is divine.</p>
|
|
<p>We will watch ready armed if the Tempter draw near,<br>
|
|
If he comes with a frown or a smile;<br>
|
|
We will heed not his threats, nor his flatteries hear,<br>
|
|
Nor be taken by storm or by wile.</p>
|
|
<p>We will master the flesh, and its longings restrain,<br>
|
|
We will not be the bond slaves of sin,<br>
|
|
The pure Spirit of God in our nature shall reign,<br>
|
|
And our spirits their freedom shall win.</p>
|
|
<p>For the world’s love we live not, its hate we defy,<br>
|
|
And we will not be led by the throng;<br>
|
|
We’ll be true to ourselves, to our Father on high,<br>
|
|
And the bright world to which we belong.</p>
|
|
<p>Now let each cheer his comrade, let hearts beat as one,<br>
|
|
While we follow where Christ leads the way;<br>
|
|
’Twere dishonor to yield, or the battle to shun,<br>
|
|
We will fight, and will watch, and will pray.</p>
|
|
<p>Though the warfare be weary, the trial be sore,<br>
|
|
In the might of our God we will stand;<br>
|
|
Oh! what joy to be crowned and be pure evermore,<br>
|
|
In the peace of our own Fatherland.</p>
