WE HAVE ANSWERED THE SUMMONS
We have answered the summons
and joined in the fight;
we are soldiers in battle for God
and the right;
with our Captain to lead us we
fear not the foe,
for His strength is sufficient to carry us through.
We shall win! we shall win!
We shall win! we shall win!
We will trust! We will pray!
And battle for the Lord our King.
Though the night may be dark
and the fight may be long,
yet the tumult of warfare shall
change into song
when the strongholds of darkness
and evil shall fall,
and our Lord shall be Conqueror
and reign over all.
See the millions that stray from
the way of the Lord,
caring nought for His wrath and
defying His word,
casting scorn on our Saviour,
despising His blood!
Will you not, then, enlist in the battle for God?
Come and join in the fight!
There are foes you must meet;
there are rebels and scoffers to
bring to His feet;
there is work for you all, and your strength is secure;
there's a crown for the victor, and victory is sure.
