Author: M. Sorin Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13611 Meter: 7.7.7.5 First Line: Raise the Christian banner high Lyrics: 1 Raise the Christian banner high, Flashing crimson through the sky, Shout the Christian battle cry— Jesus died for all. 2 Thro’ this world of sin and woe Let the cheerful tidings go; Let the ransomed nations know, Jesus died for all. 3 While the hand can hold a sword, While the tongue can lisp a word, Publish loud with one accord, Jesus died for all. 4 Lo, the signs upon the sky, Victory’s coming—victory’s nigh, Nations catch the battle cry, Jesus died for all. Soon the triumph will begin, Soon He’ll make an end of sin, Soon He’ll bring His kingdom in; Jesus died for all. O’er the land and o’er the sea, To the bondman and the free, Sound the holy jubilee, Jesus died for all. Languages: English Tune Title: VICTORVILLE

William J. Kirkpatrick

1838 - 1921 Person Name: W. J. K. Composer of "[Raise the Christian banner high]" in The Wells of Salvation William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia. Bert Polman
