The Son of God Goes Forth to War

Author: Reginald Heber Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 849 hymnals Topics: Patience of Christians Lyrics: 1 The Son of God goes forth to war, a kingly crown to gain; his blood-red banner streams afar: who follows in his train? Who best can drink his cup of woe, triumphant over pain, who patient bears his cross below, he follows in his train. 2 The martyr first, whose eagle eye could pierce beyond the grave, who saw his Master in the sky, and called on him to save; like him, with pardon on his tongue in midst of mortal pain, he prayed for them that did the wrong: who follows in his train? 3 A glorious band, the chosen few on whom the Spirit came, twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew, and mocked the cross and flame: they met the tyrant's brandished steel, the lion's gory mane; they bowed their necks the death to feel: who follows in their train? 4 A noble army, men and boys, the matron and the maid, around the Savior's throne rejoice, in robes of light arrayed: they climbed the steep ascent of heav'n through peril, toil, and pain: O God, to us may grace be giv'n to follow in their train.

O sin that hath no equal, So fast to bar the gate! 3 O Jesus, thou art pleading In accents meek and low, "I died for you, my children, And will ye treat Me so?" O Lord, with shame and sorrow We open now the door; Dear Saviour, enter, enter, And leave us nevermore. Amen. Scripture: Revelation 3:14 Used With Tune: ST. EDITH

Fret not tho' sinners' gains increase; forsake thy wrath, from anger cease; It will to evil tend. 2 The evildoer soon shall die, But those that on the Lord rely Shall all the land obtain; A little while and thou shalt see That wicked men cut off shall be, They shall be sought in vain. 3 Yea, thou shalt soon consider well The place where they were wont to dwell, And it shall not be found; But saints shall all the land possess, And find delight and happiness where fruits of peace abound. 4 The vile may plot against the just who in the Lord Jehovah trust, But God will scorn them all; The Lord their coming day shall see, When broken all their pow'r shall be, And ruin on them fall.
