Am I a soldier of the cross

1.

Am I a soldier of the cross

A foll’wer of the Lamb?

And shall I fear to own His cause

Or blush to speak His name?

2.

Must I be carried to the skies

On flowery beds of ease

While others fought to win the prize

And sailed through bloody seas?

3.

Are there no foes for me to face?

Must I not stem the flood?

Is this vile world a friend to grace

To help me on to God?

4.

Since I must fight if I would reign

Increase my courage, Lord!

I’ll bear the toil, endure the pain

Supported by Thy word.
