We are sol­diers, lit­tle sol­diers,
Fighting for our king and Lord;
Every time we win a bat­tle,
He has pro­mised a reward;
He has pro­mised ev­ery sol­dier,
If they dare the right to do,
Promised them a crown of glo­ry,
If they fight the bat­tle through.

Refrain

So we march, march away,
Not a mo­ment’s de­lay;
’Neath our ban­ner bright,
For God and right,
We’re sure to win the day.

We are sol­diers, lit­tle sol­diers,
Bravely fight­ing ev­ery sin;
With our Sav­ior for our cap­tain,
We shall all our bat­tles win;
He has pro­mised, if we ask Him,
He will help us day by day;
So we’ll brave­ly march to bat­tle,
Praying, sing­ing all the way.

Refrain

When at last the fight is over,
And we’ve reached the heav’n­ly shore,
We shall hear our Sav­ior say­ing,
Rest, My sol­diers, ev­er­more;
You have brave­ly fought My bat­tles,
Bravely fought and nob­ly won,
Enter in­to joys eter­nal—
Soldiers of the Lord, well done!

Refrain
