856: I'm A Soldier Bound For Glory

Meter:   8.7.8.7. Trochiac
Book:   2015 Song Book
Chapter:   Our Response to God, Life and Service, Testimony

1.
I'M a soldier bound for Glory,
I'm a soldier going Home;
Come and hear me tell my story,
All who love the Savior, come.

I love Jesus, hallelujah!
I love Jesus, yes, I do;
I love Jesus, He's my Savior,
Jesus smiles and loves me too.

2.
I will tell you what induced me
In the glorious fight to start;
'Twas the Savior's lovingkindness
Overcame and won my heart.

3.
When I first commenced my warfare
Many said I'd run away;
But they all have been deceivèd,
In the fight I am today.

4.
I'm a wonder unto many,
God alone the change has wrought;
Here I raise my Ebenezer,
Hither by His help I'm brought.

5.
When to death's dark, swelling river,
Like a warrior I shall come,
Then I mean to shout salvation!
And go singing “Glory!” Home.
