VERSE 1
基督精兵，稳立真道
破败世界，需你扶援；
罪恶带来：毁灭死亡；
救主流血，恩典显彰。
Soldiers of Christ, in truth arrayed,
A world in ruins needs your aid:
A world by sin destroyed and dead;
A world for which the Savior bled.
VERSE 2
耶稣福音同来传扬，
奉主名救人免失丧，
真理如光划破幽暗，
罪人悔改脱离死亡。
His gospel to the lost proclaim,
Good news for all in Jesus' name;
Let light upon the darkness break
That sinners from their death may wake.
VERSE 3
清晨夜晚，撒种不倦，
主恩滋润，田地生长，
或曾流泪，沮丧绝望，
终必收割，喜乐欢唱。
Morning and evening sow the seed,
God's grace the effort shall succeed.
Seed times of tears have oft been found
With sheaves of joy and plenty crowned.
VERSE 4
相聚有时，分别有时，
直到那日，劳苦得歇。
圣徒蒙福，进入荣耀，
永恒喜乐，与主同享。
We meet to part, but part to meet
When earthly labors are complete,
To join in yet more blest employ,
In an eternal world of joy.
词曲：Basil Manly, Jr. 1860
