Faith Is the Victory

Author: John H. Yates, 1837-1900 Hymnal: RHC #441 (1970) First Line: Encamped along the hills of light Refrain First Line: Faith is the victory! Faith is the victory! Lyrics: 1 Encamped along the hills of light, Ye Christian soldiers, rise, And press the battle ere the night Shall veil the glowing skies. Against the foe in vales below, Let all our strength be hurled; Faith is the victory, we know, That overcomes the world. Chorus: Faith is the victory! Faith is the victory! Oh, glorious victory, That overcomes the world. 2 His banner over us is love, Our sword the Word of God; We tread the road the saints above With shouts of triumph trod. By faith they, like a whirlwind's breath, Swept on o'er ev'ry field; The faith by which they conquered death Is still our shining shield. [Chorus] 3 On ev'ry hand the foe we find Drawn up in dread array; Let tents of ease be left behind, And onward to the fray; Salvation's helmet on each head, With truth all girt about: The earth shall tremble 'neath our tread, And echo with our shout. [Chorus] 4 To him that overcomes the foe White raiment shall be giv'n; Before the angels he shall know His name confessed in heav'n. Then onward from the hills of light, Our hearts with love aflame, We'll vanquish all the hosts of night, In Jesus' conquering name.

From Greenland's Icy Mountains

Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Hymnal: RHC #449 (1970) Lyrics: 1 From Greenland's icy mountains, From India's coral strand, Where Afric's sunny fountains Roll down their golden sand, From many an ancient river, From many a palmy plain, They call us to deliver Their land from error's chain. 2 What though the spicy breezes Blow soft o'er Ceylon's isle, Though ev'ry prospect pleases And only man is vile; In vain with lavish kindness The gifts of God are strown, The heathen in his blindness Bows down to wood and stone. 3 Shall we, whose souls are lighted With wisdom from on high, Shall we to men benighted The lamp of life deny? Salvation! O salvation! The joyful sound proclaim, Till earth's remotest nation Has learned Messiah's name. 4 Waft, waft, ye winds, His story, And you, ye waters, roll, Till like a sea of glory It spreads from pole to pole, Till o'er our ransomed nature The Lamb for sinners slain, Redeemer, King, Creator, In bliss returns to reign.
