Strive, when thou art called of God

Author: Johann Joseph Winckler (1670-1722); Catherine Winkworth (1827-78) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #816 (1986) Topics: The salvation soldier Warfare Lyrics: 1 Strive, when thou art called of God, When he draws thee by his grace, Strive to cast away the load That would hinder in the race. 2 Fight, though it may cost thy life; Storm the kingdom, but prevail; Let not Satan’s fiercest strife Make thee, warrior, faint or quail. 3 Art thou faithful? Wake and watch, Love with all thy heart Christ’s ways; Seek not worldly ease to snatch, Look not for reward or praise. 4 Soldiers of the cross, be strong! Watch and war through fear or pain, Daily conquering sin and wrong, Till our King o’er earth shall reign. Languages: English

We are marching onward, singing as we go, To the promised land where living waters flow; Come and Join our ranks as soldiers here below, Come and work till Jesus calls. 2 In the open air our Army we prepare, As we rally round our blessèd standard there; And the Saviour’s cross we gladly learn to share While we work till Jesus calls. 3 We are marching on; our captain, ever near, Will protect us still, his guiding voice we hear; Let the foe advance, we’ll never, never fear, But we’ll work till Jesus calls. 4 We are marching on and pressing t’wards the prize, To a glorious crown beyond the glowing skies, To the radiant fields where pleasure never dies, And we’ll work till Jesus calls.

The world for God! The world for God

Author: Evangeline Booth (1865-1950) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #830 (1986) Topics: The salvation soldier The world for God Lyrics: 1 The world for God! The world for God! There’s nothing else will meet the hunger of my soul. I see forsaken children, I see the tears that fall From women’s eyes, once merry, now never laugh at all; I see the sins and sorrows of those who sit in darkness; I see in lands far distant, the hungry and oppressed. 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! Languages: English

I'm call'd to camp to leave my home

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCCXXIV (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Military Hymns An Officer or Soldier leaving his home Lyrics: 1 I'm call'd to camp to leave my home, My friends and neighbours too: And there await my fate and doom, As many others do. 2 I march into the martial field, And there to risk my life! Where men their bloody weapons wield For battle, war and strife. 3 They, who to me are near and dear, They weep, they grieve and morn, They live in dread and doubt and fear That I might ne'er return. 4 Should this not fill a human breast? And bear upon the mind; I cannot help but feel distress'd, For those I leave behind. 5 But so it is, I must submit, What e'er my lot may be: To bear the trials I must meet; My Jesus strengthen me! 6 the sad effect of war I feel, For sin my just reward; Yet if it be my Maker's will, My life may still be spar'd. 7 Lord, be with all of mine I pray, And all of my concern! And make us wise from day to day, Thy righteous will to learn. Languages: English

The Christian warrior

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #43 (1854) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian soldier Lyrics: The Christian warrior,--see him stand In the whole armour of his God: The Spirit's sword is in his hand; His feet are with the gospel shod; In panoply of truth complete, Salvation's helmet on his head: With righteousness, a breastplate meet; And faith's broad shield before him spread. He wrestles not with flesh and blood, But principalities and powers, Rulers of darkness, like a flood, Nigh, and assailing at all hours. 44 Nor Satan's fiery darts alone, Quench'd on his shield, at him are hurl'd; The traitor in his heart is known, And the dire friendship of this world. Undaunted to the field he goes; Yet vain were skill and valour there, Unless, to foil his legion-foes, The trustiest weapon were "all-prayer." With this omnipotence he moves, From this the alien armies flee, Till more than conqueror he proves, Through Christ who gives him victory. Thus, strong in his Redeemer's strength, Sin, death, and hell, he tramples down, Fights the good fight, and wins at length, Through mercy, an immortal crown. Languages: English
