Am I A Solider Of The Cross? Tabulatur von Isaac Watts (für Baryton)

G          D7   Em
Am I a sol-dier of the cross,
D G        D7 G   G-D
A foll'wer of the Lamb,
D7  G            C  G   
And shall I fear to own His cause,
G  Am       G     D7  G
Or blush to speak His Name?

Verse 2:
G             D7   Em
Must I be car-ried to the skies
D  G       D7   G  G-D
On flowery beds of ease,
D7    G             C  G   
While others fought to win the prize,
G   Am             G     D7 G
And sailed through blood-y seas?

Verse 3:
G                 D7  Em
Are there no foes for me to face?
D    G     D7   G   G-D
Must I not stem the flood?
D7 G               C G   
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
G  Am      G  D7 G
To help me on to God?

Verse 4:
G                 D7 Em
Sure I must fight if I would reign;
D  G         D7   G    G-D
In-crease my cour-age, Lord.
D7   G              C  G   
I'll bear the toil, en-dure the pain,
G   Am     G  D7  G
Sup-ported by Thy Word.

Verse 5:
G                 D7   Em
Thy saints in all this glorious war
D     G        D7     G    G-D
Shall conquer, though they die;
D7   G           C    G   
They see the tri-umph from afar,
G  Am          G    D7  G
By faith's dis-cern-ing eye.

Verse 6:
G               D7     Em
When that illus-trious day shall rise,
D   G       D7 G    G-D
And all Thy ar-mies shine
D7 G            C    G   
In robes of vic-t'ry through the skies,
G   Am    G     D7  G
The glory shall be Thine.
