The Hinsons sang:

I’m enlisted as a soldier in this mighty army band,

marching out to battle with my weapon in my hand,

heard the captain give the orders and they don’t include retreat,

We’re crossing o’er the border to a land of no defeat.

Now tell me who’s gonna fight and who is gonna win,

who’s gonna fight and who is giving in,

who will cry I surrender when the enemy you meet,

Or be a soldier in the army standing on his feet.

Upon this rock I’ll build my church then let ole Satan try,

but the gates of hell can not prevail, and here’s the reason

why, Jesus raised the flag on calvary made sweet victory complete,

and if we’re made more than conquerors then Satan’s more than beat.

Children’s Church Song.

I’m in the Lord’s army, I’m in the Lord’s Army,

I may never march in the infantry, ride in the calvary, shoot the artillery,

I may never fly o’er the enemy , but I’m in the Lord’s army.
