A Faithful Soldier

Faithful Soldier of the Cross,
If you may have suffered loss,
There awaits a golden crown
And a spotless, linen gown.

For when you've stood for what is right,
Through weary days and dark of night,
You will have a sure reward.
God's love on you will be outpoured.

More than you can comprehend
His love and grace He will extend.
Faithful Soldier, you are treasure,
And to Him bring joy and pleasure.

"The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy."
Psalm 147:11 KJV
