"Forward!" be our watchword
Author: Rev. Henry Alford Hymnal: The Hymnal #369 (1950) Hymnal Title: The Hymnal Lyrics: 1 "Forward!" be our watchword,
Steps and voices joined;
Seek the things before us,
Not a look behind:
Burns the fiery pillar
At our army's head;
Who shall dream of shrinking,
By our Captain led?
Forward through the desert,
Through the toil and fight;
Jordan flows before us,
Zion beams with light!
2 Far o'er yon horizon
Rise the city towers,
Where our God abideth;
That fair home is ours:
Flash the streets with jasper,
Shine the gates with gold;
Flows the gladdening river,
Shedding joys untold.
Thither, onward thither,
In the Spirit's might;
Pilgrims to your country,
Forward into light!
3 To th' eternal Father
Loudest anthems raise,
To the Son, and Spirit,
Echo songs of praise,
To the Lord of glory,
Blessed Three in One,
Be by men and angels
Endless honor done.
Weak are earthly praises,
Dull the songs of night:
Forward into triumph,
Forward into light!
Amen. Topics: Work; The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service; Conflict With Sin; Discipleship and Service; Processionals; Young People's Day Tune Title: FORWARD

2 Glories upon glories
Hath our God prepared,
By the souls that love Him
One day to be shared;
Eye hath not beheld them,
Ear hath never heard;
Nor of these hath uttered
Thought or speech a word;
Forward! marching eastward
Where the heaven is bright,
Till the veil be lifted,
Till our faith be sight.

Jesus, King of glory
Author: W. Hope Davison Hymnal: The Hymnal #523 (1916) Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.5.6.5.6.5.6.5 Hymnal Title: The Hymnal Lyrics:
Jesus, King of glory,
Throned above the sky,
Jesus, tender Savior,
Hear thy children cry.
479
Pardon our transgressions,
Cleanse us from our sin;
By thy Spirit help us
Heavenly life to win.
Jesus, King of glory,
Throned above the sky,
Jesus, tender Savior,
Hear thy children cry.
On this day of gladness,
Bending low the knee
In thine earthly temple,
Lord, we worship thee;
Celebrate thy goodness,
Mercy, grace, and truth,
All thy loving guidance
Of our heedless youth.
Jesus, King of glory,
Throned above the sky,
Jesus, tender Savior,
Hear our grateful cry.
For the little children
Who have come to thee;
For the glad, bright spirits
Who thy glory see;
For the loved ones resting
In thy dear embrace;
For the pure and holy
Who behold thy face,
Jesus, King of glory,
Throned above the sky,
Jesus, tender Savior,
Hear our grateful cry.
For thy faithful servants
Who have entered in;
For thy fearless soldiers
Who have conquered sin;
480
For the countless legions
Who have followed thee,
Heedless of the danger,
On to victory,
Jesus, King of glory,
Throned above the sky,
Jesus, tender Savior,
Hear our grateful cry.
When the shadows lengthen,
Show us, Lord, thy way;
Through the darkness lead us
To the heavenly day.
When our course is finished,
Ended all the strife,
Grant us with the faithful
Palms and crowns of life.
Jesus, King of glory,
Throned above the sky,
Jesus, tender Savior,
Hear thy children cry.
Amen.

Jesus, King of glory
Brightly gleams our banner
Author: Thomas J. Potter Hymnal: The Hymnal #529 (1916) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D with refrain Hymnal Title: The Hymnal Lyrics:
Brightly gleams our banner,
Pointing to the sky,
Waving wanderers onward
To their home on high.
488
Journeying o'er the desert,
Gladly thus we pray,
And with hearts united
Take our heavenward way.
Brightly gleams our banner,
Pointing to the sky,
Waving wanderers onward
To their home on high.
Jesus, Lord and Master,
At thy sacred feet,
Here with hearts rejoicing
See thy children meet:
Often have we left thee,
Often gone astray;
Keep us, mighty Savior,
In the narrow way.
All our days direct us
In the way we go;
Lead us on victorious
Over every foe:
Bid thine angels shield us
When the storm clouds lower,
Pardon, Lord, and save us
In the last dread hour.
Then with saints and angels
May we join above,
Offering prayers and praises
At thy throne of love.
When the toil is over,
Then comes rest and peace,
Jesus in his beauty!
Songs that never cease!
Amen.
