SOLDIER OF THE CROSS
Hard working soldier picking up the cross,
humbly serving others, those who the
world considers lost.
Counting each moment precious that he
has the chance to share, the good news of
Jesus Christ and all the burdens that our
Lord bears.
The soldier is a loyal servant to his
commander up above, endeavoring to keep
the faith, opening his heart to God’s love.
For he has been commissioned to carry out
the Lord’s plan, to feed the hungry and
comfort the sick, to love his fellow man.
Sometimes the work is demanding, if
others only knew, the tears that the soldier
shed, when he had done all that he could
do.
How many sleepless nights were spent
talking to the heavenly Father, about the
battles of the day that he fought for his
sisters and brothers?
The war will soon be over, for the Lamb
of God will come, and the soldier will be
rewarded, for the priceless souls that he
won.
