Fling out the banner! let it float

Author: G. W. Doane Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 502 hymnals Topics: Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Fling out the banner! let it float Skyward and seaward, high and wide; The sun that lights its shining folds, The cross, on which the Saviour died. 2 Fling out the banner! angels bend In anxious silence o'er the sign; And vainly seek to comprehend The wonder of the love divine. 3 Fling out the banner! heathen lands Shall see from far the glorious sight, And nations, crowding to be born, Baptize their spirits in its light. 4 Fling out the banner! sin-sick souls That sink and perish in the strife, Shall touch in faith its radiant hem, And spring immortal into life. 5 Fling out the banner! let it float Skyward and seaward, high and wide, Our glory, only in the cross; Our only hope, the Crucified! 6 Fling out the banner! wide and high, Seaward and skyward, let it shine: Nor skill, nor might, nor merit ours; We conquer only in that sign. Amen. Used With Tune: CAMDEN
