It comes to all our Savior’s own, Go, preach a Savior near. Refrain: Go forth, go forth, with armor on, And crimson flag unfurled; Obey the call, the kingly call, Go forth and win the world. 2 A Savior near, dear souls to save, Go tell it far and wide; It was for this His life He gave, The matchless Crucified. [Refrain] 3 Go forth a brave, united band, All girded for the fray; Stand firm until you take the land, And thus the call obey. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: KEW GARDENS
