Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: Melodies of Salvation #183 (1901) First Line: Look up, brother, lift up your head Refrain First Line: Look up, look up, lift up, lift up Lyrics: 1 Look up, brother, lift up your head!
See this army marching on, on to glory led,
Behold her blood-stain’d banners waving high and free,
The army of the Lord is marching on to victory.
Chorus:
Look up, look up, lift up, lift up,
This shall be our battle cry, as we onward go;
We’re looking up to Jesus, who died to save from sin,
Lifting up the human race, pointing souls to Him.
2 Look up, brother, lift up your eyes!
See this army marching past, upward t’ward the skies;
With hearts and hands united in the bonds of love,
The army of the Lord is marching to that home above. [Chorus]
3 Look up, brother, lift up your voice!
See this army marching past, with them now rejoice;
“To take the world for Jesus” let our efforts be,
That all may worship Him who died to set the captive free. [Chorus]
4 Look up, brother, lift up the cross!
Help the army of the Lord, saving it from loss;
The fight will soon be over, and the vict’ry won,
The army of the Lord will hear the Master say, “well done.” [Chorus]
