Author: Frances R. Havergal Meter: 11.11.11.11.11.11 Appears in 456 hymnals First Line: Who is on the Lord's side? Who will serve the King? Lyrics: 1 Who is on the Lord’s side? Who will serve the King? Who will be His helpers, other lives to bring? Who will leave the world’s side? Who will face the foe? Who is on the Lord’s side? Who for Him will go? By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord’s side—Savior, we are Thine! 2 Not for weight of glory, nor for crown and palm, Enter we the army, raise the warrior psalm; But for love that claimeth lives for whom He died: He whom Jesus saveth marches on His side. By Thy love constraining, by Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord’s side—Savior, we are Thine! 3 Jesus, Thou hast bought us, not with gold or gem, But with Thine own lifeblood, for Thy diadem; With Thy blessing filling each who comes to Thee, Thou hast made us willing, Thou hast made us free. By Thy grand redemption, by Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord’s side—Savior, we are Thine! 4 Fierce may be the conflict, strong may be the foe, But the King’s own army none can overthrow; ’Round His standard ranging, vict’ry is secure, For His truth unchanging makes the triumph sure. Joyfully enlisting, by Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord’s side—Savior, we are Thine! 5 Chosen to be soldiers, in an alien land, Chosen, called, and faithful, for our Captain’s band; In the service royal, let us not grow cold, Let us be right loyal, noble, true and bold. Master, Thou wilt keep us, by Thy grace divine, Always on the Lord’s side—Savior, always Thine!

Forward! Be Our Watchword

Author: Henry Alford Meter: 11.11.11.11.11.11 Appears in 344 hymnals First Line: Forward! be our watchword, steps and voices joined Lyrics: 1. Forward! be our watchword, steps and voices joined; Seek the things before us, not a look behind; Burns the fiery pillar at our army’s head; Who shall dream of shrinking, by our Captain led? Forward through the desert, through the toil and fight; Jordan flows before us; Zion beams with light. 2. Forward! When in childhood buds the infant mind; All through youth and manhood not a thought behind; Speed through realms of nature, climb the steps of grace; Faint not, till in glory, gleams our Father’s face. Forward, all the lifetime, climb from height to height, Till the head be hoary, till the eve be light. 3. Forward! flock of Jesus, salt of all the earth, Till each yearning purpose spring to glorious birth: Sick, they ask for healing; blind, they grope for day; Pour upon the nations wisdom’s loving ray. Forward, out of error, leave behind the night; Forward through the darkness, forward into light! 4. Glories upon glories hath our God prepared, By the souls that love Him one day to be shared; Eye hath not beheld them, ear hath never heard; Nor of these hath uttered thought or speech a word; Forward, marching eastward, where the heaven is bright, Till the veil be lifted, till our faith be sight. 5. Far o’er yon horizon rise the city towers Where our God abideth; that fair home is ours: Flash the streets with jasper, shine the gates with gold; Flows the gladdening river shedding joys untold. Thither, onward, thither, in the Spirit’s might; Pilgrims to your country, forward into light! 6. Into God’s high temple, onward as we press, Beauty spreads around us, born of holiness; Arch, and vault, and carving, lights of varied tone, Softened words and holy, prayer and praise alone. Every thought upraising to our city bright, Where the tribes assemble round the throne of light. 7. Naught that city needeth of these aisles of stone; Where the Godhead dwelleth, temple there is none; All the saints that ever in these courts have stood, Are but babes, and feeding on the children’s food. On through sign and token, stars amidst the night, Forward through the darkness, forward into light. 8. To th’eternal Father loudest anthems raise; To the Son and Spirit echo songs of praise; To the Lord of glory, blessed Three in One, Be by men and angels endless honor done. Weak are earthly praises, dull the songs of night: Forward into triumph, forward into light! Used With Tune: ST. BONIFACE (Gadsby)

God Hath Sent His Angels to the Earth Again

Author: Phillips Brooks Meter: 11.11.11.11.11.11 Appears in 71 hymnals Refrain First Line: Angels, sing His triumph, as you sang His birth Lyrics: God hath sent his angels to the earth again, Bringing joyful tidings to the sons of men; They who first, at Christmas, thronged the heavenly way, Now beside the tomb-door, sit on Easter Day. Angels sing his triumph, as you sang his birth, "Christ, the Lord, is risen. Peace, goodwill on earth." In the dreadful desert, where the Lord was tried, There the faithful angels gathered at his side; And when in the garden, grief and pain and care Bowed him down with anguish, they were with him there. Yet the Christ they honor is the same Christ still, Who, in light and darkness, did his Father's will; And the tomb deserted shineth like the sky, Since he passed out from it into victory. God has still His angels, helping, at his word, All his faithful children, like their faithful Lord; Soothing them in sorrow, arming them in strife, Opening wide the tomb-doors, leading into life.

[Refrain] 3 When the fight is fiercest, in the noontide heat, Bear us, Holy Spirit, to our Savior’s feet; There to find a refuge, till our work is done, There to fight the battle, till the battle’s won. [Refrain] 4 If the day be falling sadly as it goes, Slowly in its sadness sinking to its close, May Thy love in mercy kindling, ere it die, Cast a ray of glory o’er our evening sky. [Refrain] 5 Morning, noon, and evening, whensoe’er it be, Grant us, gracious Spirit, quickening life in Thee; Life that gives us, living, life of heavenly love, Life that brings us, dying, life from Heaven above.

Gift So Great

Author: Joel A. Erickson Meter: 11.11.11.11.11.11 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Jesus died on a cross--oh, what awful cost! Lyrics: 1 Jesus died on a cross—oh, what awful cost!— That He might from sin’s blight save us, sinners lost; Harken, soul, hear Him call, open wide the door, Taste and see love so free, yours forevermore; Still He waits patiently, pleading one more time: Now believe, now receive saving grace sublime. 2 In this world we will have burdens hard to bear: Jesus came cares to claim, and our sorrows share; Weary soul, come to Christ, give Him all your woes— In Him find peace of mind, rest, relief, repose; When the waves, tossing wild, seem to speak an end, There, until “Peace, be still,” faithful stands a Friend. 3 Sinful soul, idle not, time is passing by, Be not blind, sin will bind tighter and for aye; Ere thy heart harder grows, won’t you heed the call? Won’t you choose? Don’t refuse mercy free for all; Savior sent, still He stands, sacrifice from Heav’n, Gift so great—do not wait, come and be forgiv’n. 4 Lord, I come, come to Thee, bringing all my sin, Thou alone can atone, wash me white within; Sin’s desires I have fed I do now forsake, Satan’s hold, though of old, I would ever break; This I cry, hopeful, and, as I cross the line, Set my will; Thou fulfill, save and make me Thine.
