Lead On, O King Eternal

Author: Ernest W. Shurtleff, 1862-1917 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 412 hymnals Topics: Commitment; Education; Trust, Guidance; Christian warfare Lyrics: 1 Lead on, O King eternal! The day of march has come; Hence-forth in fields of conquest Your tents will be our home. Through days of preparation Your grace has made us strong; And now, O King eternal, We lift our battle song. 2 Lead on, O King eternal, Till sin's fierce war shall cease, And holiness shall whisper The sweet amen of peace; For not with swords loud clashing, Nor roll of stirring drums, But deeds of love and mercy The heav'nly kingdom comes. 3 Lead on, O King eternal: We follow, not with fears, For gladness breaks like morning Where'er your face appears. Your cross is lifted o'er us; We journey in its light; The crown awaits the conquest; Lead on, O God of might! Used With Tune: LANCASHIRE
