Martin Smith - Soldiers lyrics

(Verse) We are Your salvation army Laying down our weapons Marching into battle Scarred and broken We are Your kingdom, not an empire Burning with Your fire We were born to love and to war (Chorus) Onward Christian soldiers We're laying down our lives We're lifting Jesus high Together we are stronger We're giving up our lives So let the Church arise (Verse) On our shoulders we will carry The wounded from the wreckage Crowns and thrones will perish But You remain We live for Justice not for honor Your Church will stand forever We were born to love and
to war (Chorus) Onward Christian soldiers We're laying down our lives We're lifting Jesus high Together we are stronger We're giving up our lives So let the Church arise (Bridge) We're crying out for peace on earth We're on our knees for peace on earth Let every nation sing
of Jesus Christ, our King The saints go marching in We're singing let God arise Onward Christian soldiers We're laying down our lives We're lifting Jesus high (Chorus) Onward Christian soldiers We're laying down our lives We're lifting Jesus high Together we are stronger We're giving up our lives So let the Church arise The saints go marching in The saints go marching in
