Lead On, O King Eternal

Author: Ernest W. Shurtleff Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 396 hymnals Matching Instances: 184 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 earth her song begin! The world resound in triumph, And all that is therein; Let all things seen and unseen Their notes of gladness blend; For Christ the Lord hath risen, Our joy that hath no end. Amen.

Rejoice, all ye believers

Author: Sarah B. 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.

Author: Lawrence Tuttiett Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 182 hymnals Matching Instances: 15 Lyrics: 1. 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
