W. S. Brown

P.M.

A CALL for loyal soldiers

Comes to one and all;

Soldiers for the conflict,

Will you heed the call?

Will you answer quickly,

With a ready cheer,

Will you be enlisted

As a volunteer?

A volunteer for Jesus,

A soldier true!

Others have enlisted,

Why not you?

Jesus is the Captain,

We will never fear;

Will you be enlisted

As a volunteer?

2

Yes, Jesus calls for soldiers

Who are filled with power,

Soldiers who will serve Him

Every day and hour;

He will not forsake you,

He is ever near;

Will you be enlisted

As a volunteer?

3

He calls you, for He loves you

With a heart most kind,

He whose heart was broken,

Broken for mankind;

Now, just now He calls you,

Calls in accents clear,

Will you be enlisted

As a volunteer?

4

And when the war is over,

And the victory won,

When the true and faithful

Gather one by one,

He will crown with glory

All who there appear;

Will you be enlisted

As a volunteer?
