The Soldiers of Jesus Christ

We are the African soldiers, 
The soldiers of Jesus Christ.
We are preaching the word of God to win our battle. 
Heavenly Father clothed us with His weapon, 
Which is 
His positive word. 
Holy Ghost clothed us with the powers 
So that people can know Jesus Christ. 
Our enemies use lies to destroy us;
They sing bad songs to insult us. 
They are hypocrites, 
Selfish fishermen fished in the furnace, 
And vomited electric - fish. 
Sunrise and sunset, 
They are in the streets shouting: 
“Shoot soldiers, and shoot officers in the offices “ 
They try to ruin our reputation with the fire and 
We are the fire fighters who fight in fireplaces. 
They are very stubborn, 
Barbarians, 
And blinds who had been blinded by bandits.
They forget that we are protectors
 Who protect protestors. 
Hypocrite hunters who hunt a hippopotamus on the huts.
Goodness is like the fire to them and 
Badness is their cold drinks.
Jealous is their daily uniforms
 And peace is like poison to them.
We are your true soldiers God,
Trained to teach different people. 
Put to shame our enemies; 
We are the powerful soldiers of Jesus Christ.
