Soldiers

We are your salvation army
Laying down our weapons
Marching into battle scarred and broken
We are your kingdom, not an empire
Burning we were to war
With your fire born to love and to war

Onward christian soldiers
We’re laying down our lives
We’re lifting Jesus high
Together we are stronger
We’re giving up our lives
So let the church arise

On our shoulders we will carry
The wounded from the wreckage
Crowns and thrones will perish
But you remain we live for justice not for honour
Your church will stand forever
We were born to love and to war

We’re crying out for peace on earth
We’re on our knees for peace on earth
Let every nation sing of Jesus christ, our king
The saints go marching in
We’re singing let god arise

The saints go marching in
The saints go marching in
