Wear A Crown

Am I a soldier of the cross,
A follower of the lamb,
And shall I fear to own His cause,
Or blush to speak His name?

CHORUS
And when the battle's over, we shall wear a crown!
Yes, we shall wear a crown! Yes, we shall wear a crown!
And when the battle's over, we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem.
Wear a crown, wear a crown,
Wear a bright and shining crown,
And when the battle is over we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem.

Must I be carried to the skies
On flow'ry beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize,
And sailed through bloody seas?

CHORUS
And when the battle's over, we shall wear a crown!
Yes, we shall wear a crown! Yes, we shall wear a crown!
And when the battle's over, we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem.
Wear a crown, wear a crown,
Wear a bright and shining crown,
And when the battle is over we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem.

Are there no floers for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace
To help me on to God?

CHORUS
And when the battle's over, we shall wear a crown!
Yes, we shall wear a crown! Yes, we shall wear a crown!
And when the battle's over, we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem.
Wear a crown, wear a crown,
Wear a bright and shining crown,
And when the battle is over we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem.

Sure I must fight if I would reign,
Increase my courage, Lord;
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Supported by thy word.

CHORUS
And when the battle's over, we shall wear a crown!
Yes, we shall wear a crown! Yes, we shall wear a crown!
And when the battle's over, we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem.
Wear a crown, wear a crown,
Wear a bright and shining crown,
And when the battle is over we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem.
