O, ye Christian soldiers, as you march along, Be a light for Jesus ev'ry day; Keep His banner hoisted all the whole day long, Be a light for Jesus ev'ry day.

Keep your lamps trimmed, burning so that all may see, Be a light for Jesus ev'ry day; Let the world see Jesus and from sin be free. Be a light for Jesus ev'ry day.

Thousands grope in darkness that can never see, Be a light for Jesus ev'ry day; Until we point them up to Mount Calvary, Be a light for Jesus ev'ry day.

Keep the light bright, shining all the world around, Be a light for Jesus ev'ry day; 'Till, released from darkness, all the Lord have found, Be a light for Jesus ev'ry day.

Be a light, (Bright, shining light,) Be a light, (Bright, shining light,) Be a light for Jesus ev'ry day, (ev'ry day,) Be a light, (Bright, shining light,) Be a light, (be a shining light,) Be a light for Jesus ev'ry day.
