AM I A SOLDIER OF THE CROSS?
1. Am I a soldier
of the Cross-
A follow'r of the
Lamb?
And shall I fear to
own His cause,
Or blush to speak
His name?
Refrain
In the name, the
precious name
Of Him who died for
me,
Thro' grace I'll
win the promised crown,
Whate'er my cross
may be!
2. Must I be
carried to the skies
On flow'ry 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. Since I must
fight if I would reign,
Increase my
courage, Lord!
I'll bear the toil,
endure the pain,
Supported by Thy
word.
