The Die Is Cast, My Choice Is Made,
A Soldier I Will Be;
Where Jesus Leads I’m Not Afraid,
A Soldier I Will Be.
In Any Clime, In Any Place,
E’en Can I Not My Savior Trace,
To Spread The News Of Jesus’ Grace,
A Soldier I Will Be.
I’ll Follow Thee, My Savior,
No Matter Where It Be;
I’ll Follow Thee, My Savior,
O’er Mountain, Vale, Or Sea;
I’ll Follow Thee, My Savior,
You Can Depend On Me:
In Joy Or Pain, In Loss Or Gain,
Thy Soldier I Will Be.
In Spite Of Sorrow, Toil, Or Pain,
A Soldier I Will Be;
I’ll Bear The Cross, Despise The Shame,
A Soldier I Will Be.
I Know No Color, Class, Or State,
But Cry, “Repent, Ere ’Tis Too Late!”
And Save Lost Souls From Hell’s Sad Fate,
A Soldier I Will Be.
Until I Draw My Latest Breath
A Soldier I Will Be;
And When My Eyes Shall Close In Death,
A Soldier I Will Be.
And When I Reach Those Gates Of Pearl,
I’ll Sheath My Sword, My Colors Furl,
Defiance At The Foe I’ll Hurl,
A Soldier I Will Be.
