This song is on you-tube by the Rochester family and I would like the lyrics to it. Thank you.

Chorus:
I'm a soldier bound for Glory
I'm a soldier going home
Come and here me tell me story
All who love the savior come

I will tell you what induced me
In this glorious fight to start
Twas the Savior's loving kindness
Overcame and won my heart

Some may say that I'm too noisy
But I'll tell you the reason why
If they only felt the glory
They would shout as well as I

When to death's dark, swelling river
Like a warrior I shall come,
Then I need to shout salvation
And go singing glory home.

Repeat Chorus

I love Jesus, Hallelujah
I love Jesus, yes I do
I love Jesus, He's my Savior
Jesus smiles and loves me too

FULL and Correct Lyrics

1 I'm a soldier bound for Glory,
I’m a soldier going home;
Come and hear me tell my story,
All who love the Saviour, come.
I love Jesus, hallelujah!
I love Jesus, yes, I do;
I love Jesus, he’s my Saviour,
Jesus smiles and loves me too.

Chorus
It’s a long rough way to Calvary with the cross at the end
And each torn will be a blood-drop
And each nail will rend;
But the cross will change to glory when the conflict is past
And the dawning light of Calvary leads to heaven at last.

2 I will tell you what induced me
In this glorious fight to start:
‘Twas the Savior’s loving-kindness
Overcame and won my heart.
When I first commenced my warfare,
Many said, “I’d run away”;
But they all have been deceived
In the fight I’m in today.

Chorus
It’s a long rough way to Calvary with the cross at the end
And each torn will be a blood-drop
And each nail will rend;
But the cross will change to glory when the conflict is past
And the dawning light of Calvary leads to heaven at last.

3 I’m a wonder unto many,
God alone that change was wrought;
Here I raise my “Ebenezer”,
Either by His help I’m brought,
When to death’s dark, swelling river,
Like a warrior I shall stand
Then I mean to shout “Salvation!”
And go singing “glory! home.”
