Lead On, O King Eternal

Author: Ernest W. Shurtleff Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 401 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lead on, O King Eternal, The day of march has come; Henceforth in fields of conquest Thy tents shall be our home: Thro' days of preparation Thy grace has made us strong, And now, O King Eternal, We lift our battle song. 2. Lead on, O King Eternal, Till sin's fierce war shall cease, And holiness shall whisper The sweet amen of peace; For not with swords' loud clashing, Or roll of stirring drums; With deeds of love and mercy The heav'nly kingdom comes. 3. Lead on, O King Eternal, We follow not with fears; For gladness breaks like morning Where'er Thy face appears; Thy cross is lifted o'er us; We journey in its light: The crown awaits the conquest; Lead on, O God of might.

Your voice alone, O Lord, can speak to me of grace; Your pow'r alone, O Son of God, can all my sin erase. No other work but Yours, no other blood will do; No strength but that which is divine can bear me safely thro'. 3. I praise the Christ of God; I rest on love divine; And with unfalt'ring lip and heart I call this Savior mine. My Lord has saved my life and freely pardon gives; I love because he first loved me, I live because He lives. Scripture: Jeremiah 10:23 Used With Tune: LEOMINSTER
