Hark, How The Watchmen Cry,
Attend The Trumpet’s Sound!
Stand To Your Arms, The Foe Is Nigh,
The Powers Of Hell Surround:
Who Bow To Christ’s Command,
Your Arms And Hearts Prepare!
The Day Of Battle Is At Hand!
Go Forth To Glorious War!
See On The Mountain-Top
The Standard Of Your God!
In Jesu’s Name I Lift It Up,
All Stained With Hallowed Blood.
His Standard-Bearer, I
To All The Nations Call,
Let All To Jesu’s Cross Draw Nigh!
He Bore The Cross For All.
Go Up With Christ Your Head,
Your Captain’s Footsteps See;
Follow Your Captain, And Be Led
To Certain Victory.
All Power To Him Is Given,
He Ever Reigns The Same;
Salvation, Happiness, And Heaven
Are All In Jesu’s Name.
Only Have Faith In God;
In Faith Your Foes Assail,
Not Wrestling Against Flesh And Blood,
But All The Powers Of Hell;
From Thrones Of Glory Driven,
By Flaming Vengeance Hurled,
They Throng The Air, And Darken Heaven,
And Rule The Lower World.
