The Son of God Goes Forth to War

Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: The Hymnbook #354 (1955) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Soldiers of Christ Lyrics: 1 The Son of God goes forth to war, A kingly crown to gain; His blood-red banner streams afar: Who follows in His train? Who best can drink his cup of woe, Triumphant over pain, Who patient bears his cross below, He follows in His train. 2 The martyr first, whose eagle eye Could pierce beyond the grave, Who saw his Master in the sky, And called on Him to save: Like Him, with pardon on his tongue In midst of mortal pain, He prayed for them that did the wrong: Who follows in his train? 3 A glorious band, the chosen few On whom the Spirit came, Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew, And mocked the cross and flame: They met the tyrant's brandished steel, The lion's gory mane; They bowed their necks the death to feel: Who follows in their train? 4 A noble army, men and boys, The matron and the maid, Around the Saviour's throne rejoice, In robes of light arrayed: They climbed the steep ascent of heaven Through peril, toil, and pain: O God, to us may grace be given To follow in their train! Amen. Scripture: Matthew 16:24 Tune Title: ALL SAINTS NEW

The Battle Is the Lord's!

Author: Margaret Clarkson Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #545 (2018) Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Topics: Soldiers of Christ Lyrics: 1 The battle is the Lord's! The harvest fields are white; how few the reaping hands appear, their strength how slight! Yet victory is sure, we face a vanquished foe; then forward with the risen Christ to battle go! 2 The battle is the Lord's! Not ours in strength or skill, but his alone in sov'reign grace, to work his will. Ours, counting not the cost, unflinching, to obey; and in his time his holy arm shall win the day. 3 The battle is the Lord's! The Victor crucified must with the travail of his soul be satisfied. The pow'rs of hell shall fail, and all God's will be done, 'til ev'ry soul whom he has giv'n to Christ be won. 4 The battle is the Lord's! Stand still, my soul, and view the great salvation God has wrought, revealed for you. Then, resting in his might, lift high his triumph song, for pow'r, dominion, kingdom, strength to God belong!
