Am I a Soldier of the Cross?
Am I a soldier of the cross,
A follower of the Lamb,
And shall I fear to own His cause,
Or blush to speak His Name?
Must I be carried to the skies
On flowery beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize,
And sailed through bloody seas?
Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
To help me on to God?
Sure I must fight if I would reign;
Increase my courage, Lord.
I’ll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Supported by Thy Word.
Thy saints in all this glorious war
Shall conquer, though they die;
They see the triumph from afar,
By faith’s discerning eye
When that illustrious day shall rise,
And all Thy armies shine
In robes of victory through skies,
The glory shall be Thine.
Are YOU a Soldier of the Cross? ? ?
Thanks, RR

Ah, the sentiment that got us into Iraq!
personally I'm a pacifist of the pentacle, that way I'm not part of this warmongering and hate.

When I was smaller I believed all that, but as i have seemed to have lost faith, I fight for what I deem to be my "cross"
