O Church of God, triumphant O’er human doubts and fears, Which in the faith of ages Comes marching thro’ the years; Baptized with blood of martyrs, With conflicts dearly won, Beset with persecutions, Yet ever marching on. Refrain O Church of God, triumphant, With conflicts dearly won, Beset with persecution, Yet ever marching on. 2. With backward look we see thee, Thy scattered members few; We see thee struggling ever Their courage to renew; Strong amid tribulation, Uprising from each fall, We see thee marching onward Triumphant over all. [Refrain] 3. O refuge of the nations, On thee our hope is stayed; Thy courage thro’ the ages Shall keep us unafraid; And with thy strength increasing Till earthly years are past, God help thee to march onward Triumphant to the last.

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Person Name: Charles Hutchinson Gabriel Composer of "NIMS LAKE" in The Cyber Hymnal Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
