Lord, help us, and inspire Our hearts and lives that we May build, with all thy wondrous gifts, A Kingdom meet for thee. 4 Peace in our time, O Lord, To all the peoples-peace! Peace that shall build a glad new world, And make for life’s increase. O, living Christ, who still Dost all our burdens share, Come now and dwell within the hearts Of all men everywhere.

But behold! On a hill, Calvary! Calvary! Refrain: The world for God! The world for God! I give my heart! I’ll do my part! The world for God! The world for God! I give my heart! I will do my part! 2 The world for God! The world for God! I call to arms the soldiers of the blood and fire: Go with the Holy Bible, it’s words are peace and life To multitudes who struggle with crime and want and strife. Go with your songs of mercy, show Christ in loving kindness, Make known the sufferings of the cross, the sacrifice of God; For behold! On a hill, Calvary! Calvary! 3 The world for God! The world for God! For this, dear Lord, give to my soul consuming fire. Give fire that makes men heroes, turns weakness into might, The fire that gives the courage to suffer for the fight, The fire that changes fearing to pentecostal daring, The fire that makes me willing for Christ to live or die; For behold! On a hill, Calvary! Calvary! Topics: The salvation soldier The world for God
