215. Die In the Field of Battle

Refrain:
Die in the field of battle,
Die in the war,
Die in the field of battle,
Glory in my soul.

1 How lost was my condition
When Jesus made me whole,
There is but one Physician,
Come, cure the sin-sick soul. [Refrain]

2 We'll fight for Him who frees us,
And conquer tho' we die;
We'll lose our lives for Jesus,
And find them by and by. [Refrain]

3 O come and join this army,
And battle for the right;
Let not all hell alarm thee,
We're sure to win the fight. [Refrain]
