Carry The Light 

 

As a soldiers of the cross

We have a special job we must do

We must carry the light of hope

Into the dark and dreary land 

 

People are lost and dying

In a dark world of sin

We must carry the light of salvation  

So that heaven they can enter in.

 

Though the journey seems long and difficult

Onward we must go

Carrying the light of love

So the Father’s heart they’ll know.

 

Keep marching on through the darkness

Breaking the enemy’s snares as we go

Carrying the light of healing

Showing them God really cares.
