"STEADFAST AND TRUE"

Verse One:
Hear and heed the call of Christ today,
He has need of soldiers for the fray:
In the front He has a place for you;
Soldiers of Jesus, be steadfast and true!

Chorus:
Soldiers of Jesus, make no delay!
Hark, He is calling, calling today!
Forward then, O speed you;
Follow where He leads you;
Soldiers of Jesus, be steadfast and true!

Verse Two:
Though the hosts of Satan may assail,
Trust in Christ, in Him you shall prevail.
He who leads you will your strength renew;
Soldiers of Jesus, be steadfast and true!

[Repeat Chorus]

Verse Three:
Forward, then, O soldiers of the King!
Let your songs of triumph gladly ring;
Never falter, ev'ry duty do;
Soldiers of Jesus, be steadfast and true!

[Repeat Chorus Two Times]

Soldiers of Jesus, be steadfast and true!
