World-Wide Prohibition

Author: C. H. G. Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #359 (1916) Topics: Patriotic and Temperance First Line: The order has gone forth - "Mover forward!" Refrain First Line: To the front, O soldiers brave Lyrics: 1 The order has gone forth- "Move forward!" Gird on the armor and away! In columns firm and strong advancing, On to the front without delay! On to the front! oh, be up and away! Let not the din of strife o'erwhelm thee; Let not the enemy alarm, For lo, there goeth on before thee, One able to defend from harm. Chorus: To the front, O soldiers brave, (be brave,) There's a world from drink to save; (to save;) Then fight for world-wide prohibition, For world-wide prohibition. 2 From far and near the cry rings- "Help us!" Behold, the moment is at hand When ev'ry loyal christian soldier Should hear and heed the Lord's demand, Should hear the Lord, for He speaks to command! For Satan's strong-holds must be taken; His idols must be overthrown; Let ev'ry volunteer awaken, And make the temp'rance cause his own. [Chorus] 3 Before thine eyes a mighty army Goes marching onward to the grave; And will ye see them pressing forward, Nor reach a helping hand to save, Nor reach a hand to deliver and save? From o'er the waters, too, comes ringing The pleading Macedonian cry; O Christian, rouse ye from thy slumber, And answer "Master, here am I." [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [The order has gone forth - "Move forward!"]

Where There's Drink, There's Danger

Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #360 (1916) Topics: Patriotic and Temperance First Line: Write it on the liquor store Lyrics: 1 Write it on the liquor store, Write it on the prison door, Write it on the ginshop fine, Write, aye write this truthful line- "Where there's drink there's danger;" "Where there's drink there's danger." 2 Write on the workhouse gate, Write it on the schoolboy's slate, Write it on the copybook, Where the young may often look- "Where there's drink there's danger;" "Where there's drink there's danger." 3 Write it on the nation's laws, Trampling out the license clause, Write it on the ballot white, So it can be read aright: "Where there's drink there's danger;" "Where there's drink there's danger." 4 Write it over ev'ry gate, On the church, the halls of state, In the heart of ev'ry band, On the laws of ev'ry land- "Where there's drink there's danger;" "Where there's drink there's danger."

For down, down, down, down, Down in de bottom ob de glass, Dere's snakes an' bugs, an' dregs and drugs, Dat'll git you sure, at las', Down in de bottom ob de glass. 4 You can sing an' laugh, as de wine you quaff, But you look out dar! by an' by It will run you down like an ole blood houn', An' leave you dar to die! For down, down, down, down, Down in de bottom ob de glass, Dere's snakes an' bugs, an' dregs and drugs, Dat'll git you sure, at las', Down in de bottom ob de glass.

Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #362 (1916) Topics: Patriotic and Temperance First Line: All the brewers tell us lager-beer's a food Lyrics: 1 All the brewers tell us lager-beer's a food; That for old and young 'tis very, very good. Ha, ha, ha, ha ha, ha, ha, ha! Pardon, if our laugh seems rude. 2 If 'tis really food, as by the brewers said, Why do many "soaKers" have to beg for bread? Ha, ha, ha, ha ha, ha, ha, ha!
