The Cyber Hymnal ‎#7770

7770. Ye Soldiers of the King of Kings

1. Ye soldiers of the King of kings,
Your captain calls today;
Oh, heed the message that He brings,
The call to arms obey.

Refrain
Out with the mighty sword of God!
Wield it in might, be strong!
The Word of God we’ll spread abroad
And triumph over wrong.

2. The hosts of sin are raging round,
The conflict fiercer grows;
March on, the Lord in glory crowned,
Hath vanquished all His foes. [Refrain]

3. The victory will soon be ours,
In Him we ne’er can fail;
O’er death, and hell, and all the powers
Through Christ we shall prevail. [Refrain]
