*********

Chorus

Christians in Christ\'s army

Formidable be

Strengthened with His power

To serve every hour

 

Christians, endure hardship

Whether deed or lip* (*words)

Does offend, persecute

Wear full armour suit

[Of] Armour of God, ready

Unto action be

Good soldiers of Jesus be

In His light-army - Chorus

 

For no one engaging

In a war does bring

Affairs of this life to

Entangle anew

Not caught up in worldly

Things, but kingdom see

The kingdom of God here

Shall soon full appear - Chorus

 

For we seek to please who

Has chose me and you

To be in His army

Single-minded be

Army of Christ Jesus

He leads, commands us

Through him, on victory side

In His strength abide - Chorus

 

And if competing we

For the mastery

In things that we pursue

It sure be, is true

That we not crowned, lest we

The lawful way, see

Compete in, short-cuts none

Following Christ the Son - Chorus
