The Son of God goes forth to war
Author: Bp. R. Heber, 1783-1826 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #358a (1917) 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 Saviour's throne rejoice,
In robes of light arrayed.
They climbed the steep ascent of heaven
Through peril, toil, and pain;
O God! to us may grace be given
To follow in their train! Topics: Christ Mind of; The Church and the Kingdom of God Social Service; Fellowship With Christ ; Soldiers of Christ; Reward; Son of God; Martyrs Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS NEW

At Length There Dawns
Author: Ozora S. Davis Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #405 (1957) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: At length there dawns the glorious day Lyrics: 1 At length there dawns the glorious day
By prophets long foretold;
At length the chorus clearer grows
That shepherds heard of old.
The day of dawning Brotherhood
Breaks on our eager eyes,
And human hatreds flee before
The radiant eastern skies.
2 For what are sundering strains of blood,
Or ancient caste and creed?
One claim unites all men in Christ
To serve each human need.
Then here together, brother men,
We pledge the Christ anew
Our loyal love, our stalwart faith,
Our service strong and true.
3 One common faith unites us all,
We seek one common goal,
One tender comfort broods upon
The struggling human soul.
To this clear call of Brotherhood
Our hearts responsive ring;
We join the glorious new crusade
Of our great Lord and King.
Amen. Scripture: Galatians 3:26-28 Tune Title: ALL SAINTS NEW
