Big Chief Battle Axe

Come all you people 'round
Listen what I have to say
I’ll sing you a song about the heavenly throng
Thank God, I’m on my way
I’ve traveled the paths of sin
And many a crime I’ve done
But I trust in God
And through Christ’s blood
Thank God, the victory’s won
Walking in the way with Jesus
Feeling mighty, happy now
When I’m tempted to do wrong
Before the Lord I bow
I ask Him for protection
And we begin to fight
And it’s not long till the tempter’s gone
And everything’s all right
I came to the feet of Jesus
Determined to do right
I prayed and trusted night and day
Until I saw the light
I’ve started now for heaven
I’m taking a different trail
I’m trusting now in the promises of God
For I know they cannot fail
Walking in the way with Jesus
Feeling mighty, happy now
When I’m tempted to do wrong
Before the Lord I bow
I ask Him for protection
And we begin to fight
And it’s not long till the tempter’s gone
And everything’s all right
God leads me to the Bible
Where I can plainly see
That Jesus hung on Calvary’s cross
And died for you and me
I’m sorry now for sinners
For you, I’m sick at heart
Why can’t you decide for Christ today
And never from Him part?
Walking in the way with Jesus
Feeling mighty, happy now
When I’m tempted to do wrong
Before the Lord I bow
I ask Him for protection
And we begin to fight
And it’s not long till the tempter’s gone
And everything’s all right
I gave up sin and drinking
To live a different life
And by God’s grace I will hold out
Till freed from toil and strife
Then when life’s book is opened
And not a thing is found
I’ll gladly join the angel choir
And receive the promised crown
Walking in the way with Jesus
Feeling mighty, happy now
When I’m tempted to do wrong
Before the Lord I bow
I ask Him for protection
And we begin to fight
And it’s not long till the tempter’s gone
And everything’s all right
