On the Battlefield

I was alone and idle,
I was a sinner too,
I heard a voice from heaven
Say there is work to do,
I took the Master’s hand,
And joined that heavenly band,
Now I’m on the battlefield for my Lord.
Well I’m on the battlefield for my Lord,
Yes, I’m on the battlefield for my Lord;
I promised Him that I would serve Him till I die.
Now I’m on the battlefield for my Lord.
I left my friends and kindred
Bound for the Promised Land,
The grace of God upon me,
The Bible in my hand,
In distant lands I trod,
Cried sinner come to God,
Now I’m on the battlefield for my Lord.
Well I’m on the battlefield for my Lord,
Yes, I’m on the battlefield for my Lord;
I promised Him that I would serve Him till I die.
Now I’m on the battlefield for my Lord.
Well I’m on the battlefield for my Lord,
Yes, I’m on the battlefield for my Lord;
I promised Him that I would serve Him till I die.
Now I’m on the battlefield for my Lord.
