Onward, Christian soldiers

Hymnal: BWHT1899 #541b (1899) Lyrics: 1 Onward, Christian solders, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. Christ, the royal Master, Leads against the foe; Forward into battle, See His banners go. Refrain: Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before. 2 Like a mighty army, Moves the Church of God; Brothers, we are treading Where the saints have trod; We are not divided, All one body we, One in hope and doctrine, One in charity. [Refrain] 3 Crowns and thrones may perish, Kingdoms rise and wane, But the Church of Jesus Constant will remain; Gates of hell can never 'Gainst the Church prevail; We have Christ's own promise, And that cannot fail. [Refrain] 4 Onward, then, ye people, Join our happy throng; Blend with ours your voices In the triumph-song; Glory, laud, and honor, Unto Christ the King; This through countless ages, Men and angels sing. [Refrain] Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: GAUNTLETT

Forward! be our watchword

Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: BWHT1899 #542 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Forward! be our watchword, Steps and voices joined; Seek the things before us, Not a look behind. Burns the fiery pillar At our army's head; Who shall dream of shrinking, By our captain led? Forward thro' the desert, Thro' the toil and fight; Jordan flows before us, Zion beams with light! 2 Glories upon glories Hath our God prepared, By the souls that love Him One day to be shared: Eye hath not beheld them, Ear hath never heard; Nor of these hath uttered Thought or speech a word: Forward, marching eastward Where the heaven is bright, Till the vail be lifted, Till our faith be sight! 3 To the Father's glory Loudest anthems raise; To the Son and Spirit Echo songs of praise; To the Lord Jehovah, Blessed Three in One, Be by men and angels Endless honor done. Weak are earthly praises, Dull the songs of night; Forward into triumph Forward into Light! Amen.

We give Thee but Thine own

Author: William W. How Hymnal: BWHT1899 #543 (1899) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 We give Thee but Thine own, Whate'er the gift may be; All that we have is Thine alone, A trust, O Lord, from Thee. 2 May we Thy bounties thus As stewards true receive, And gladly, as Thou blessest us, To thee our first fruits give. 3 O hearts are bruised and dead, And homes are bare and cold, And lambs, for whom the Shepherd bled Are straying from the fold! 4 To comfort and to bless, To find a balm for woe, To tend the lone and fatherless, Is angels' work below. 5 The captive to release, The lost to God to bring, To teach the way of life and peace-- It is a Christ-like thing. 6 And we believe Thy word, Though dim our faith may be; Whate'er we do for Thine, O Lord, We do it unto Thee.

His faithful follower I would be, For by His hand He leadeth me. 2 Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom, Sometimes where Eden's flowers bloom, By waters calm, o'er troubled sea, Still 'tis His hand that leadeth me. [Refrain] 3 Lord, I would clasp Thy hand in mine, Nor ever murmur nor repine; Content, whatever lot I see, Since 'tis my God that leadeth me. [Refrain] 4 And when my task on earth is done, When, by Thy grace, the victory's won, E'en death's cold wave I will not flee, Since God through Jordan leadeth me. [Refrain] Amen.

Know ye not your Captain's power? 3 Let your drooping hearts be glad; March in heavenly armor clad: Fight, nor think the battle long, Victory soon shall tune your song. 4 Let not sorrow dim your eye, Soon shall every tear be dry; Let not woe your course impede, Great your strength, if great your need. 5 Onward then to battle move, More than conquerors ye shall prove; Though opposed by many a foe, Christian soldiers, onward go.

He that goeth forth with weeping

Author: Thomas Hastings Hymnal: BWHT1899 #548 (1899) Lyrics: 1 He that goeth forth with weeping, Bearing precious seed in love, Never tiring, never sleeping, Findeth mercy from above. 2 Soft descend the dews of heaven, Bright the rays celestial shine; Precious fruits will thus be given, Through an influence all divine. 3 Sow thy seed, be never weary, Let no fears thy soul annoy; Be the prospect ne'er so dreary, Thou shalt reap the fruits of joy. 4 Lo, the scene of verdure brightening! See the rising grain appear; Look again! the fields are whitening, For the harvest-time is near. Amen.

Sow in the morn thy seed

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: BWHT1899 #549 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Sow in the morn thy seed; At eve hold not thine hand; To doubt and fear, give thou no heed, Broadcast it o'er the land! 2 Beside all waters sow, The highway furrows stock, Drop it where thorns and thistles grow, Scatter it on the rock. 3 The good, the fruitful ground Expect not here nor there; O'er hill and dale alike 'tis found; Go forth, then, everywhere. 4 And duly shall appear, In verdure, beauty, strength, The tender blade, the stalk, the ear, And the full corn at length. 5 Thou canst not toil in vain; Cold, heat, and moist and dry, Shall foster and mature the grain For garners in the sky. 6 Then, when the glorious end, The day of God, shall come, The angel-reapers shall descend, And heaven sing, "Harvest home!"
