1. Put yourself on God’s side,
Stand for truth and right;
Follow in His footsteps,
Walking in the light.
Put yourself on God’s side,
Dare to suffer loss;
Learning from the Master
How to bear the cross.
Chorus:
God’s side is the safe side, (only safe side,)
Safe side, the only safe side! (it is the only safe side!)
God’s side is the safe side, (only safe side,)
Put yourself today on God’s side.
2. Put yourself on God’s side,
Step across the line,
Joyfully enlisting
In a cause divine.
Put yourself on God’s side,
To the end endure;
Show your colors always,
Victory is sure.
3. Put yourself on God’s side,
Leave the world behind;
In His blessed service
Liberty you’ll find.
Put yourself on God’s side,
Grace will make you strong;
Onward go rejoicing,
Shout the victor’s song.
