Lead On, O King Eternal

Author: Ernest W. Shurtleff Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 395 hymnals Matching Instances: 178 Lyrics: 1 Lead on, O King eternal, the day of march has come; henceforth in fields of conquest your tents shall be our home. Through days of preparation your 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, nor roll of stirring drums; with deeds of love and mercy the heavenly kingdom comes. 3 Lead on, O King eternal, we follow, not with fears; for gladness breaks like morning where'er your face appears; your cross is lifted o'er us; we journey in its light; the crown awaits the conquest: lead on, O God of might.

Let all things, seen and unseen, Their notes of gladness blend; For Christ the Lord has risen, Our joy that has no end! 4 All praise to God the Father, All praise to God the Son, All praise to God the Spirit, Eternal Three in One!

Findlater; Laurentius Laurenti Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 334 hymnals Matching Instances: 40 Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, all ye believers, And let your lights appear; The evening is advancing, And darker night is near: The Bridegroom is arising, And soon he draweth nigh; Up, pray, and watch, and wrestle: At midnight comes the cry. 2 See that your lamps are burning; Replenish them with oil; And wait for your salvation, The end of earthly toil. The watchers on the mountain Proclaim the Bridegroom near, Go meet him as he cometh, With Alleluias clear. 3 Ye saints, who here in patience Your cross and suff'rings bore, Shall live and reign for ever, When sorrow is no more: Around the throne of glory The Lamb ye shall behold, In triumph cast before him Your diadems of gold. 4 Our Hope and Expectation, O Jesus, now appear; Arise, thou Sun so longed for, O'er this benighted sphere. With hearts and hands uplifted, We plead, O Lord to see The day of earth's redemption That brings us unto thee. Amen.

Go forward, Christian soldier, Beneath His banner true: The Lord Himself, thy leader, Shall all thy foes subdue. His love foretells thy trials; He knows thine hourly need; He can with bread of Heaven Thy fainting spirit feed. 2. Go forward, Christian soldier, Fear not the secret foe; Far more o’er thee are watching Than human eyes can know: Trust only Christ, thy captain; Cease not to watch and pray; Heed not the treacherous voices That lure thy soul astray. 3. Go forward, Christian soldier, Nor dream of peaceful rest, Till Satan’s host is vanquished And Heav’n is all possessed; Till Christ Himself shall call thee To lay thine armor by, And wear in endless glory The crown of victory. 4. Go forward, Christian soldier, Fear not the gath’ring night: The Lord has been thy shelter; The Lord will be thy Light. When morn His face revealeth, Thy dangers are all past: O pray that faith and virtue May keep thee to the last! Used With Tune: LANCASHIRE

Appears in 598 hymnals Matching Instances: 8 Lyrics: 1 All glory, laud, and honor To Thee, Redeemer, King! To whom the lips of children Nade sweet hosannas ring. Thou art the King of Israel, Thou David's royal Son, Who in the Lord's name comest, The King and blessed One. 2 The company of angels Are praising Thee on high, And mortal men and all things Created make reply. The people of the Hebrews With palms before Thee went, Our praise and prayer and anthems Before Thee we present. 3 To Thee before Thy passion They sang their hymns of praise; To Thee now high exalted Our melody we raise. Thou didst accept their praises; Accept the prayers we bring, Who in all good delightest, Thou good and gracious King. Amen.
