A SOLDIER IN WAITING.

We all have been listed in this life
In the army of God's own army
Each one of us is a general
In the Lord's army
our commander in chief of arm forces.

Is the Lord our God
The strong and mighty He is
He calls us out from the world
And from its idols to flee
To be enlisted in the army of the Lord.

Will fought endless
Will stood for the faith
Will contend on all sides
With our breastplate of righteousness
Our feet ready to take the gospel to the world.

A soldier in waiting
Waiting to contend
Against falehood
Against sin and lukewarmness
Against self and lust of the flesh.

A soldier in waiting
With hand held grip to the sword
Resisting the power of darkness
With God's Word as Spirit gives life
To the words find therein in the God's Word.

Waiting for the command
To go to set the captive free
To heal the sick given eyes to the blind
Feet to the lame and recovering of Spiritual sight.

To throw out the lifeline
To those who are seated in the dark
To redeem men back to God again
To reawaken the Spiritual slumberness
Among the body of Christ in contending for the faith.
