Go to the grave in all thy glorious prime

No, take thy seat above! Be thy pure spirit present with the Lord, Where thou for faith and hope hast perfect love, And open vision for the written word. Used With Tune: TOULON

Ye armies of the living God, His sacramental host, Where hallowed footsteps never trod Take your appointed post: 3 Though few and small and weak your bands, Strong in your Captain's strength Go to the conquest of all lands; All must be his at length. Those spoils at his victorious feet You shall rejoice to lay, And lay yourselves, as trophies meet, In his great judgment-day. 4 O fear not, faint nor, halt not now; In Jesus' Name be strong; To him shall all the nations bow, And sing with you this song: "Uplifted are the gates of brass, The bars of iron yield; Behold the King of Glory pass; The cross has won the field."
