BATTLE IN THE LORD

I am a soldier of Jesus, and servant of the Lord;

I shall not fear to take His cross, or suffer for his name.

CHORUS

And when the battle’s over, we shall wear a crown,

//God will give me a crown// 

And when the battle’s over,

We shall wear a crown in the new Jerusalem.

//In that land// in the new Jerusalem,

And when the battle’s over we shall wear a crown 

In the new Jerusalem.

2

Others have fought for my Lord’s faith, no cowards shall I be;

For my good Lord, I’ll stand and fight, His faith shall be my guide.

3

Fight the fight of faith and of love, increase my Lord;
