Another soldier fallen,
In the rank and file of God;
A life's grand record ended,
An earthly pathway trod;
Safe in the home he sung of,
'Til hardest hearts were stirred,
Among the songs eternal
His own sweet voice is heard.

O, noble Christian soldier,
Your memory stall be dear,
For while you sing the New Song there,
Your own shall bless us here.

Oh, faithful armor-bearer,
How many eyes are dim
Because you joni no longer
Earth's might battle-hymn;
True heart, loved as a brother,
Your friendly hand we miss
But think with heart exultant,
He knows what heaven is.

O, noble Christian soldier,
Your memory stall be dear,
For while you sing the New Song there,
Your own shall bless us here.

Oh, comrade in God's army,
The battle trumpet ring;
The dear old flag you fought for
Upon the winds we fling;
The thought of you will strengthen
The weak heart in the fray,
And this the word we send you,
We'll "hold the fort" today!

O, noble Christian soldier,
Your memory stall be dear,
For while you sing the New Song there,
Your own shall bless us here.
