14341. Lift Up The Gospel Banner

1 Lift up the Gospel banner
Upon the mountain high;
Proclaim the Savior’s glory,
Which fills the earth and sky;
Go spread the joyful tidings
Thro’ all the world around,
And tell to dying sinners,
The way of life is found.

Refrain:
Lift up the Gospel banner,
Upon the mountain high,
Proclaim the Savior’s glory,
On earth and thro’ the sky.

2 Lift up the Gospel banner,
Let every sinner see
The path of woe and danger,
That from it they may flee;
That all may seek their refuge
In Christ, the sinner’s friend,
Who only can uphold us,
And keep us to the end. [Refrain]

3 Lift up the Gospel banner,
Upon the mountain high,
Till o’er the earth its glory
Is seen by every eye;
For Christ shall reign triumphant,
And all His foes shall fall;
But unto those who love Him
Will He be all in all. [Refrain]
