CHRIST IS MY SHIELD AND ARMOUR
HE IS MY TRUMPET CALL
HE HELPS ME FIGHT MY BATTLES
AND BE VICTOR OVER ALL
CHRIST IS MY PRIDE AND POWER
HE IS MY LIBERTY
HE OVERCAME THE CHAINS OF SIN
AND GAVE NEW LIFE TO ME
CHRIST MARCHES ON BEFORE ME
AND THIS I SURELY KNOW
WHERE 'ERE HE CARES TO LEAD ME
MOST GLADLY WILL I GO
'MID TRIALS AND TEMPTATIONS
I DARE NOT SHUN THE FIGHT
FOR THE LORD DOTH LEAD ME ONWARD
WITH HIS SWORD OF TRUTH AND RIGHT
(THIS WAS MY FIRST POEM. THE FIRST
THREE VERSES WERE WRITTEN IN THE
SUMMER OF 1963. THE LAST VERSE WAS
ADDED IN THE FALL OF 1963.)
