I'm in the Lord's Army

I may never march in the infantry

Tune: [I may never march in the infantry]
Published in 4 hymnals

Representative Text

I may never march in the infantry,
ride in the cavalry, shoot the artillery;
I may never zoom o'er the enemy,
but I'm in the Lord's army.
I'm in the Lord's army.
I'm in the Lord's army.
I may never march in the infantry,
ride in the cavalry, shoot the artillery;
I may never zoom o'er the enemy,
but I'm in the Lord's army.
