LyicsWE'RE 'listed in the holy war,
Content the soldier's toils to share;
Hope is our helmet--faith our shield--
Our foe is sin--the world the field.
With sacred truth, our loins are girt,
And holy zeal inspires our heart:
Thus armed we venture on the fight,
Resolved to put the foe to flight.
May Jesus kindly deign to spread,
His glorious banner o'er our head:
While clouds of witnesses look down,
Oh may we seize the victor's crown!
DOXOLOGY.
Join all on earth in heaven above,
In honor, blessing, glory, love!
Sing praises to the great "I Am."
Sing praises to the spotless Lamb.
