"Am I a soldier of the cross, a follower of the Lamb,
and shall I fear to own His cause, or blush to speak His name?
Must I be carried to the skies on flowery beds of ease,
while others fought to win the prize, and sailed though bloody seas?
Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend to grace, to help me on to God?
Sure I must fight if I would win; increase my courage, Lord.
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, supported by Thy Word."
