The cross of Christ your King.

Strong men and maidens fair,
Raise high your free, exulting song,
God's wondrous praise declare. (Refrain)

With all the saints on earth,
Pour out the strains of joy and bliss,
True rapture, noblest mirth! (Refrain)

Still chanting as ye go;
From youth to age, by night and day,
In gladness and in woe. (Refrain)

Still march in firm array;
As warriors through the darkness toil
Till dawns the golden day. (Refrain) Topics: Old Age; Worship Scripture: Psalm 33:1 Languages: English Tune Title: MARION
