From the Eastern Mountains
Forward
Author: Franklin D. Barnes Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.5 D Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Forward be our watchword Lyrics: 1 Forward be our watchword,
Onward in His name;
Faithful in His service,
Ever true remain;
Jesus is our leader,
At our army’s head;
Never shrink nor falter,
By our captain led;
Soon the warfare over,
Ended death and pain,
We with Christ forever,
In His kingdom reign.
2 Forward be our watchword,
In His army joined;
Marching on to conquest,
Not a look behind;
Onward to the conflict,
Trusting in His name,
He will lead His people,
And His cause maintain.
Jesus is our captain;
He our faithful guide,
If we only trust Him,
And in Him abide.
3 Come and join the army
Of our Lord and king;
Volunteers He calleth,
Hearts and voices bring;
Giving time and service
To our gracious God;
Who, in love and mercy,
Seeks our lasting good.
Come, and He will keep you
In His blessèd way;
He will lead you unto
Realms of endless day.

Twine the Easter garland
Author: Anonymous Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.5 D Appears in 10 hymnals Refrain First Line: Twine the Easter garland, Lyrics: 1 Twine the Easter garland,
Deck the grave with flowers;
Jesus Christ hath conquered
Death’s enthralling powers;
Satan, sin and sorrow
Lie beneath His feet;
Christians, raise your voices,
Sing His triumph sweet.
Refrain:
Twine the Easter garland,
Deck the grave with flowers,
Jesus Christ hath conquered
Death’s enthralling powers.
2 Like a mighty victor
Rose the Lord that morn;
Brighter light and purer
On this earth was born;
Rays of hope and mercy,
Round His form are shed;
Scattered doubt and showered
Glory on the dead. [Refrain]
3 Faith, a ray of glory,
Shows the empty tomb
And the many mansions
Of the Savior’s home,
Where the saints were resting,
After death and grave:
Christians, we can conquer
Sing His power to save. [Refrain] Used With Tune: GLENCOE Text Sources: Hymnal for Children by H. S. Hoffman (Philadelphia: Reformed Episcopal Publication Society, 1887)
