When the Battle's Over

Cat. #1286 (MFH #893) - As sung by Ollie Gilbert, Mountain View, Arkansas on November 30, 1971

VERSE 1
Am I a soldier of th cross
A follow of th Lamb
An' shall I fear to long His call
Or blurst to speak His name

CHORUS:
When th battle's over, we shall wear th crown
Yes, we shall wear th crown
Yes, we shall wear a crown
When th battle's over, we shall wear a crown
To th new Jeu-ru-sa-lum

VERSE 2
Must I be carried to th sky
On flowery beds of peace
While others fought to win th prize
And sailed to bloody seas
