Author: William Walsham How (1823-97) Appears in 90 hymnals Topics: The salvation soldier Calling Lyrics: 1 Soldiers of the cross, arise, Gird you with your armour bright; Mighty are your enemies, Hard the battle ye must fight. 2 O’er a faithless, fallen world Raise your banner in the sky; Let it float there wide unfurled; Bear it onward; lift it high. 3 ‘Mid the homes of want and woe, Strangers to the living word, Let the Saviour’s herald go, Let the voice of hope be heard. 4 Where the shadows deepest lie, Carry truth’s unsullied ray; Where are crimes of blackest dye, There the saving sign display. 5 To the weary and the worn Tell of realms where sorrows cease; To the outcast and forlorn Speak of mercy and of peace. 6 Be the banner still unfurled, Still unsheathed the Spirit’s sword, Till the kingdoms of the world Are the Kingdom of the Lord.
