4. Lift On High His Banner

1 Lift on high the banner
Of our glorious King;
Marching on rejoicing,
As His praise we sing;
Jesus leads us onward,
In the bright and shining way,
To eternal mansions,
In the realms of endless day.

Refrain:
Lift up His royal banner,
High let it wave,
Telling to all lands and nations
Jesus died to save!

2 Ever on and upward,
In His footsteps bright,
In His love abiding,
Walking in the light;
Onward thro’ the sunshine,
Onward, onward thro’ the shade,
While He goes before us,
We will never be afraid. [Refrain]

3 Crowns of fadeless glory,
Garments white and fair,
In the bright forever,
Shall the faithful wear;
There in all His beauty,
Christ our Savior we shall see,
And His love and mercy
Laud and praise eternally. [Refrain]
