soldier of faith - barnabas aid lyrics
verse 1
my world was so small, before i believed
you opened my eyes and now i can see
it’s no longer about me, my life or my pride
now my heart beats for you and your suffering bride
verse 2
i’ve been protected, privileged, preserved
compared to my brothers and sisters unheard
i pray that your word gives them hope against strife
enduring through suffering as servants of christ
chorus
the athlete prepares, competes and is crowned
the farmer who works hard shall reap from the ground
i may have been saved, but it’s not to be safe
instead let me stand – a good soldier of faith
verse 3
one part of our body always suffers in pain
another is cast out, or imprisoned in chains
help us stay faithful, run the race for your son
and fight the good fight, that you’ve already won
interlude
you are the perfect example for us
bearing the burdens of others in love
help us to love the same
the way that you poured out your son
verse 4
we’re all sons and daughters of his holiness
from in him we have an inheritance
we wait on your kingdom where suffering will cease
until the trumpets resound, and we sit at your feast
last chorus
the athlete prepares, competes and is crowned
the farmer who works hard shall reap from the ground
the soldier enlists, puts their life on the line
dying to self, so that your story shines
i know i’ve been saved, but it’s not to be safe
instead let me stand * a good soldier of faith
lord please help me stand – with my family in faith
