A Soldier Of The Cross

A Soldier Of The Cross

Am I a soldier of the cross --
A foll'wer of the lamb?
And shall I fear to own His cause,
Or blush to speak His name?

In the name of Christ the King,
Who hath purchased life for me,
Thro' grace I'll win the promised crown,
Whate'er my cross may be.

Must I be carried to the skies,
On flowery beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize,
And sailed thro' bloody seas?

Since I must fight if I would reign;
Increase my courage, Lord!
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Suppored by Thy Word.

In the name of Christ the King,
Who hath purchased life for me,
Thro' grace I'll win the promised crown,
Whate'er my cross may be.
