We’re sol­diers of the King, re­deemed,
And saved thro’ Je­sus’ blood;
Enlisted now for Zi­on’s war,
To fight for Christ our Lord.
We’ll bear His ban­ner where He leads,
And serve Him as we go;
Beneath His cross while time thus speeds,
Resolved but Christ to know.

Refrain

Then sing, glad­ly sing,
And bat­tle for the right;
We’ll laud and mag­ni­fy our king
And serve Him with de­light.

We’re sold­iers of the King, to­day
We march in num­bers strong;
We’ll take this world with­out de­lay,
By pray­er and faith and song;
Our cap­tain leads us on­ward, He
The Lord of earth and skies,
Shall gain for us the vic­to­ry,
The foe be­fore Him flees.

Refrain

We’re sol­diers of the King, and go
With grace suf­fi­cient blest,
Naught but the Spi­rit’s lead to know,
Nor dare to think of rest.
Until we stand with bat­tle scars
And wounds be­fore the throne,
Where we shall dwell be­yond the stars
With Christ in Heav’n our home.

Refrain
