Warfare

[Verse 1]

My Lord told His disciples

"After I'm risen and gone

You'll meet with troubles and trials

Bear your rebukes and scorns

[Verse 2]

"My warfare will soon be ended

My race is almost run

My warfare will soon be ended

And I'm coming home

[Verse 3]

"You can rebuke Me all you want to

I'm traveling home to God

I'm well acquainted with the crosses

And all My ways are hard"

[Verse 4]

They say my Lord is the devil

They call His saints the same

I don't expect much more down here

Than grief and scorn and shame

[Verse 5]

God bless them holiness people

The Presbyterians too

Those good old shouting Methodists

Those praying Baptists too

[Verse 6]

And when you get to Heaven

I wanna see you there

And when I say, "Amen"

I want you to say so too

[Verse 7]

My warfare will soon be ended

My race is almost run

My warfare will soon be ended

And I'm coming home

And I'm coming home

And I'm coming home
