Representative Text

1 We are little soldiers,
Fighting for our king;
Don't you love to hear us,
As we so gladly sing?

Chorus:
Tramp, tramp, tramp, we are coming, coming coming!
Tramp, tramp, tramp, coming with an army strong!

2 Satan will entrap us,
If we don't look out;
When we see him coming,
We raise our army shout [Chorus]

3 We are little soldiers,
But we know the right,
When the foe is near us,
We pray and sing with might. [Chorus]
