Christian Soldiers.

OH, when shall I see Jesus, And dwell with him above! To drink the flowing fountains, Of everlasting love? When shall I be deliver'd From this vain world of sin, And with my blessed Jesus, Drink endless pleasures in?

But now I am a soldier, My captain's gone before, He's given me my orders, And tells me not to fear; And if I hold out faithful, A crown of life he'll give, And all his valiant soldiers Eternal life shall have.

Through grace I am determin'd To conquer though I die, And then away to Jesus, On wings of love I'll fly: Farewell to sin and sorrow, I bid it all adieu; And you my friends be faithful, And on your way pursue.
