^GAm ^CI a soldier of the cross, A ^Gfollower of the ^CLamb, ^GAnd ^Cshall I fear to own His cause, Or ^Gblush to speak His ^Cname?

And w^Chen the battle's over We shall wear a crown! Yes, w^Ge shall wear a crown! Yes, ^Cwe shall wear a crown! And w^Chen the battle's over We shall wear a crown, In the N^Gew Jerusal^Cem. Wear a c^Grown, wear a c^Crown. Wear a b^Cright and s^Dhining cr^Gown: And w^Chen the battle's over We shall wear a crown In the N^Gew Jerusal^Cem.

^GMust ^CI be carried to the skies On ^Gflowery beds of ^Cease, ^GWhile ^Cothers fought to win the prize, And ^Gsailed through bloody ^Cseas?

^GAre ^Cthere no foes for me to face? Must ^GI not stem the ^Cflood? ^GIs ^Cthis vile world a friend to grace, To ^Ghelp me on to ^CGod?

And w^Chen the battle's over We shall wear a crown! Yes, w^Ge shall wear a crown! Yes, ^Cwe shall wear a crown! And w^Chen the battle's over We shall wear a crown, In the N^Gew Jerusal^Cem. Wear a c^Grown, wear a c^Crown. Wear a b^Cright and s^Dhining cr^Gown: And w^Chen the battle's over We shall wear a crown In the N^Gew Jerusal^Cem.
