587. Our Lamb Has Conquered

1 Our Lamb has conquered: let us follow him,
with eagerness of heart and strength of limb,
brave in endeavor, with your vision clear,
and high thanksgiving for God's purpose here -
Our Lamb has conquered: let us follow him.

2 In loving service may our lives be spent,
in other's gladness finding sweet content,
striving to show God's fellowship to all.
To show God's loving work - the servants' call.
In loving service may our lives be spent.

3 Our Lamb has conquered: let us follow him,
from life's fair dawning to its twilight dim,
fighting with selfishness and all its brood,
sin and disease, the enemies of good -
Our Lamb has conquered: let us follow him.
