Fall Into Line

Author: Rev. R. H. Shaftoe Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 3:14 First Line: Wait not, the conflict is raging today Lyrics: 1 Wait not, the conflict is raging today, God calls for you then why longer delay, Fall into line with the brave and the true, Do with your might what your hands find to do. Refrain: Fall into line, yes, we’ll fall into line. Clothed for the conflict in armor divine, Marching to battle, we’ll sing as we go, Jesus, our leader, will vanquish the foe. 2 Jesus, the Master needs soldiers like you, Who in the conflict will always prove true, Fall into line, boldly march to the fight, Sin must be vanquished, then stand for the right. [Refrain] 3 Fear not, ‘tis Christ who calls you today, Come to Him now, He will show you the way, Come and be saved by His power divine, Then with His soldiers just fall into line.

Anticipation

Author: C. W. N. Meter: 8.5.8.5.7.7.7.5 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 3:13-14 First Line: When the last earth-tie is sundered Lyrics: 1 When the last earth-tie is sundered, And my soul set free; When life’s cares and toils are numbered, I shall haste to be With my Lord, in realms of light, Where no sin can ever blight, Where ne’er comes the shades of night; To His arms I’ll flee. 2 Often here I’m sad and weary, As the days go by; Oft the scenes are dark and dreary, Teardrops dim my eye; But when this short life is o’er, We shall weep and sigh no more, But rejoice forevermore In our home on high. 3 Now I look with eager longing, Where I soon shall stand, Where the happy spirits thronging, In the heav’nly band, Taste the joys of love divine, In refulgent glory shine— This great heritage is mine, In that happy land. 4 Shall I shrink at death’s cold river, When on yonder shore Stands of every good the Giver, Whom I now adore? Untold pleasures beckon me, Untold joys by faith I see, Untold happiness to be Mine forevermore.

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Author: Martin Luther; Frederick Henry Hedge Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 674 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 3 Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing; our helper he, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe does seek to work us woe; his craft and power are great, and armed with cruel hate, on earth is not his equal. 2 Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing, were not the right Man on our side, the Man of God's own choosing. You ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is he; Lord Sabaoth his name, from age to age the same; and he must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us, we will not fear, for God has willed his truth to triumph through us. The prince of darkness grim, we tremble not for him; his rage we can endure, for lo! his doom is sure; one little word shall fell him. 4 That Word above all earthly powers– no thanks to them– abideth; the Spirit and the gifts are ours through him who with us sideth. Let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also; the body they may kill: God's truth abideth still; his kingdom is forever!
