98. THE SONG OF THE SOLDIER

1. Rise, ye children of salvation,

All who cleave to Christ the Head;

Wake, arise! O mighty nation,

Ere the foe on Zion tread.

Pour it forth a mighty anthem,

Like the thun.. ders of the sea;….

Thro’ the blood of Christ our ransom,

More than con… querors are we;…

More than con… querors are we;…

Thro’ the blood of Christ our rasnsom,

More than conquerors are we.

2. Saints and heroes long before us.

Family on this ground have stood;

See their banners waving o’er us

Conquerors through Jeeus’ blood.

3. Deathless we are all unfearing,

Life laid up with Christ in God;

In the morn of His appearing

Floweth forth a glory flood.

4. Soon we all shall stand before Him,

See and know our glorious Lord;

Soon in joy and light adore Him,

Each receiving his reward.

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
