The Silver Chime ‎#102

102. No. 10 (Hope)--"I, too, will lead you forward"

1 I, too, will lead you forward,
My banner is unfurl'd,
Behold it upward lifted,
To cheer a doubting world.
There, in the bitter contest,
I'll bear it bright and pure,
My arm shall e'er defend it,
To make the vict'ry sure.

2 Above you waving freely,
In starry light 'twill shine,
Your pathway to illumine,
To bless your work divine.
Then follow me, your leader,
My banner is unfurled,
Behold it upward lifted,
To cheer a doubting world.
