Soldier

Until the trumpet's triumphant fanfare Until clouds cluster to billowy stair Until all men see His radiant face Truth emanating love and grace Rejuvenating us to upwardly soar In a moment we change evermore Until that day the battle bellows The lion's thunderous roar The serpent's subtle hiss Deceitful hearts and lying lips Plotting in arrogance and vanity Trying to break the children of the Almighty Until that day the enemy hides Where imagination and reason reside Trapping hearts into the spirit of timidity Tangling thoughts into apostasy Seducing men to pride Reducing reality to reverie But try as he will The devil feebly fails The truth prevails Angels of God surround the saints Steadfast we stand claiming the Blood of the Lamb The Holy Spirit revealing the mystery That at the Name of Jesus Kingdoms are crushed and the fearsome fall Even demons of hell are swiftly compelled On bended knee to confess The Almighty Name of He Who Is The precious Name of Jesus So I shall cling to Jesus Who shed His Blood for me Here I stand in the King's army In Him only am I delivered and I live To Him only my life I give
