Author: William P. Merrill Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #461 (1974) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Hymns for the Living Church First Line: Rise up, O men of God Lyrics: 1 Rise up, O men of God!
Have done with lesser things;
Give heart and mind and soul and strength
To serve the King of kings.
2 Rise up, O men of God!
His Kingdom tarries long;
Bring in the day of brotherhood
And end the night of wrong.
3 Rise up, O men of God!
The Church for you doth wait,
Her strength unequal to her task;
Rise up, and make her great!
4 Lift high the cross of Christ!
Tread where His feet have trod;
As brothers of the Son of man,
Rise up, O men of God!
Amen. Topics: Conflict; Dedication of Life; Invitation to Consecration Scripture: Hebrews 10:37 Languages: English Tune Title: FESTAL SONG
