I Am On The Battlefield For My Lord
(written by Sylvana Bell & E.V. Banks)
(arranged by Thomas A. Dorsey)

Chorus
I am on the battlefield for my Lord.
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord,
and I promised Him that I
would serve Him 'til I die;
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.
Verse 1
I was alone and idle, I was a sinner too.
I heard a voice from heaven say there is work to do.
I took the Master's hand, and I joined the Christian band;
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.
Chorus
Verse 2
I left my friends and kindred bound for the Promised Land,
the grace of God upon me, the Bible in my hands.
In distant lands I trod, crying sinner come to God;
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.
Chorus
Verse 3
Now when I met my Savior, I met Him with a smile,
He healed my wounded spirit, and owned me as Hs child.
Around the throne of grace, He appoints my soul a place;
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord.
Chorus
