On The Battlefield - Nina Hagen

I am on the battlefield

For my Lord I’m working

Yes I am on the battlefield

I’m working for my Lord,

And I promised Him

That I would serve Him till I die;

Yes I am on the battlefield for my Lord.

I was alone and I was idle,

I was a sinner too.

I heard a voice from heaven

telling that there is work to do.

I took my Master’s hand,

and I joined the Christian band;

Yes I am on the battlefield for my Lord, yes I am

I left my friends and kindred

bound for the Promised Land,

The grace of God upon me,

the Holy Bible in my hand

In distant lands I trod,

crying sinners come back home to God;

Yes I am on the battlefield for my Lord.

I am on the battlefield

For my Lord I’m working

I am on the battlefield

I’m working for my Lord.

Yes I promised Him

That I would serve Him till I die;

I promised the Lord

Yes I promised the Lord

That I would serve Him till I die;

I promised the Lord
