There is a great conflict of interest between a born again Christian, who is an ambassador for Christ, and the military goals of any nation.
FOR ALL MY SAVIOR DIED
I am a Christian, born again,
My life begun anew.
The life I’ve led, the things I’ve done,
I can no longer do.
*
I am the Lord’s, and He is mine,
His life through me will shine.
To every kindred, tongue, and tribe,
To all of humankind.
*
I want to do, as Jesus taught,
Who walked this earth below.
To offer words of healing love,
Not misery and woe.
*
I’m here on earth, to share the Word,
Not harm to any bring.
I cannot take a human life,
And still call Jesus King.
*
A very narrow road I walk,
Though some do walk beside.
I cannot join in war because,
For all my Savior died.
*
I’m of a different Kingdom now,
A pilgrim here on earth.
Ambassador for Christ I am,
Because of my new birth.
