11. Our Banner

1 Brightly gleams our banner,
Pointing to the sky,
Waving wand’rers onward
To their home on high.
Journeying o’er the desert,
Gladly thus we pray,
And, with hearts united,
Take our homeward way.

Refrain:
Glory! glory! let your voices ring!
Glory! glory to our God and King!
Marching ever onward,
Brave and true and strong,
Raise the mighty chorus,
Let the sound prolong!

2 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. [Refrain]

3 Then, with saints and angels
May we join above,
Off’ring pray’rs 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. [Refrain]
