Song - I am a Soldier

I am a Soldier
I’m a soldier bound for glory,
I’m a soldier going home;
Come and hear me tell my story—
All who love the Savior, come.


  Refrain:
I love Jesus, hallelujah!
I love Jesus, yes, I do, I do;
I love Jesus, He’s my Savior;
Jesus smiles and loves me too.


I will tell you what induced me
In the glorious fight to start:
’Twas the Savior’s loving-kindness
Overcame and won my heart.


When I first commenced my warfare,
Many said, “He’ll run away”;
But their words have been unfounded—
In the fight I am today.


I’m “a wonder unto many,”
God alone the change has wrought;
Here I raise my Ebenezer,
Hither by His help I’m brought.


When to death’s dark, swelling river,
Like a warrior I shall come,
Then I mean to shout “Salvation!”
And go singing “glory!” home.
