Who will be His helpers Others lives to bring? Who will leave the world's side? Who will face the foe? Who is on the Lord's side? Who for Him will go? By Thy call of mercy, By Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord's side, Savior, we are Thine. 2. Not for weight of glory, Not for crown and palm, Enter we the army, Raise the warrior psalm; But the Love that claimeth Lives for whom He died: He whom Jesus nameth, Must be on His side. By Thy love constraining, By Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord's side, Savior, we are Thine. 3. Jesus, Thou hast bought us, Not with gold or gem, But with Thine own life-blood, For Thy diadem: With Thy blessing filling Each who comes to Thee, Thou hast made us willing, Thou hast made us free. By Thy grand redemption, By Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord's side, Savior, we are Thine. 4. Fierce may be the conflict, Strong may be the foe, But the King's own army None can overthrow: Round His standard ranging, Vict'ry to secure; For His truth unchanging Makes the triumph sure. Joyfully enlisting By Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord's side, Savior, we are Thine. Topics: The Christian Life Warfare Used With Tune: ARMAGEDDON

Hear us as we raise Hearts, as well as voices, Mingling prayer and praise. 2 When the sun ariseth In a cloudless sky, May we feel Thy presence, Holy Spirit, nigh; Shed Thy radiance o'er us, Keep it cloudless still, Through the day before us, Perfecting Thy will. Light and life immortal! Hear us as we raise Hearts, as well as voices, Mingling prayer and praise. 3 When the fight is fiercest In the noontide heat, Bear us, Holy Spirit, To our Saviour's feet; There to find a refuge Till our work is done, There to fight the battle, Till the battle's won. Light and life immortal! Hear us as we raise Hearts, as well as voices, Mingling prayer and praise. 4 If the day be falling Sadly as it goes, Slowly in its sadness Sinking to its close, May Thy love in mercy, Kindling, ere it die, Cast a ray of glory O'er our evening sky. Light and life immortal! Hear us as we raise Hearts, as well as voices, Mingling prayer and praise. 5 Morning, noon, and evening, Whenso'er it be, Grant us, gracious Spirit, Quickening life in Thee: Life that gives us, living, Life of heavenly love, Life, that brings us, dying, Life from heaven above. Light and life immortal! Hear us as we raise Hearts, as well as voices, Mingling prayer and praise. Amen.
