christian soldier! shouldst thou rue
LIE and its toll as others do
wear sad frown from day TO day.
ana sarb thy soul in holden graya
On rather shouldst thou smile e,ata
Inquelled by sin. unawod by hate
my loity-statured spirit dress
In modes OF royal stateliness---
fof say, what service so divine
As that all! warrior heart, OF thine.
High pledged alike through gain Or loss
TO thy brave banner of the Cross?
yea, what hast thou TO do with gloom
WHOSE footsteps spurn the conquered tomb
ihod, that through dreariest dark capst
see
smiling immortality?
Leave TO the mournful doubling slave
VINO deems the whole wan earth a grave
aeross whose dusky mounds forlorn
Can rise no resurrection morn,
The somber mien, the funeral weed.
mat dlrkly match SO dark a creed.
but be thy brow turned bright on ali
my voice like some clear clarion call
reallng Der LIES tumultuous van
Inc Keynote Of the hopes OF man.
Wn'ie DER thee flames thro' gain, thro'
loss O
The fadeless symbol Of the Cross!
