1. Christ is set on Zion’s hill,
He receiveth sinners still;
Who will serve this blessed King,
Come enlist and with me sing.
I His soldier sure shall be,
Happy in eternity.

2. I by faith enlisted am,
In the service of the Lamb;
Present pay I now receive,
Future happiness He’ll give.
I His soldier sure shall be,
Happy in eternity.

3. Zion’s King my Captain is,
Conquest I shall never miss,
Let the fiends of hell engage,
Fret and foam, and roar and rage.
I His soldier sure shall be,
Happy in eternity.

4. Let the world their forces join,
With the fiends of hell combine;
Greater is my King than they,
Through Him I shall win the day.
I His soldier sure shall be,
Happy in eternity.

5. Wicked men I scorn to fear,
Though they persecute me here;
True, they may the body kill,
But my King’s on Zion’s hill.
I His soldier sure shall be,
Happy in eternity.

6. What a Captain have I got;
Is not mine a happy lot:
Hear, ye worldlings! hear my song,
This, the language of my tongue.
I His soldier sure shall be,
Happy in eternity.

7. When this life’s short space is o’er,
I shall live to die no more;
Therefore will I take the sword,
Fight for Jesus Christ my Lord.
I His soldier sure shall be,
Happy in eternity.

8. Come ye worldlings, come enlist,
’Tis the voice of Jesus Christ;
Whosoever will, may come,
Jesus Christ refuseth none.
I His soldier sure shall be,
Happy in eternity.

9. Jesus is my Captain’s name,
Now as yesterday the same;
In His name I notice give,
All who come He will receive.
I His soldier sure shall be,
Happy in eternity.

10. Be persuaded, take His pay,
All your sins He’ll wash away;
Now in Jesus’ name believe,
Future happiness He’ll give;
Yes in heav’n you sure shall be,
Praising God eternally.
