  With the cross of Jesus going on before.

  Brothers, lift your voices, loud your anthems raise. {Refrain}

  Like a mighty army moves the church of God;

  Brothers, we are treading where the saints have trod.

  We are not divided, all one body we,

  One in hope and doctrine, one in charity. {Refrain}

  Crowns and thrones may perish, kingdoms rise and wane,

  But the church of Jesus constant will remain.

  Gates of hell can never ’gainst that church prevail;

  We have Christ’s own promise, and that cannot fail. {Refrain}

  This through countless ages men and angels sing. {Refrain}

  George Duffield

  Stand up, stand up for Jesus,

  Ye soldiers of the cross;

  Lift high his royal banner,

  It must not suffer loss.

  His army shall he lead,

  Till every foe is vanquished,

  And Christ is Lord indeed.

  Stand up, stand up for Jesus,

  The trumpet calls obey;

  Forth to the mighty conflict,

  In this his glorious day.

  Ye that are brave now serve him

  Against unnumbered foes;

  Let courage rise with danger,

  And strength to strength oppose.

  Stand up, stand up for Jesus,

  Stand in his strength alone;

  The arm of flesh will fail you,

  Ye dare not trust your own.

  Put on the gospel armor,

  Each piece put on with prayer;

  Where duty calls or danger,

  Be never wanting there.

  Stand up, stand up for Jesus,

  The strife will not be long;

  This day the noise of battle,

  The next the victor's song.

  To those who vanquish evil

  A crown of life shall be;

  They with the King of Glory

  Shall reign eternally.

  89. BRINGING IN THE SHEAVES

  Knowles Shaw, 1874

  Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves,

  We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves;

  Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves,

  We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.

  Sowing in the sunshine, sowing in the shadows,

  Fearing neither clouds nor winter’s chilling breeze;

  By and by the harvest, and the labor ended,

  We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves. {Refrain}

  Going forth with weeping, sowing for the Master,

  Though the loss sustained our sp
irit often grieves;

  When our weeping’s over, He will bid us welcome,

  We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves. {Refrain}

  90. WORK, FOR THE NIGHT IS COMING

  Anna L. Coghill, 1854,

  Work, for the night is coming,

  Work through the morning hours;

  Work while the dew is sparkling,

  Work ’mid springing flowers;

  Work when the day grows brighter,

  Work in the glowing sun;

  Work, for the night is coming,

  When man’s work is done.

  Work, for the night is coming,

  Work through the sunny noon;

  Fill brightest hours with labor,

  Rest comes sure and soon.

  Give every flying minute,

  Something to keep in store;

  Work, for the night is coming,

  When man works no more.

  Work, for the night is coming,

  Under the sunset skies;

  While their bright tints are glowing,

  Work, for daylight flies.

  Work till the last beam fadeth,

  Fadeth to shine no more;

  Work, while the night is darkening,

  When man’s work is o’er.

  91. PREACH TO THE WORLD

  If ye shall drink any deadly things

  In my name, conquerors are you

  In my name, there is salvation. {Refrain}

  If ye obey, ye must take your cross

  He that rejects you; rejects me

  He that heareth you, heareth my Father. {Refrain}

  Refrain:

  Be occupied for the Lord

  You shall be rewarded

  You may not be able, to be singing as we do

  You may be that man, backing us with prayer

  The Lord is reckoning, with your praying duty {Refrain}

  You may be that one, bringing people to the Lord

  Let it shine from shore to shore!

  Send the light, the blessed Gospel light;

  Let it shine forevermore!

  “Send the light! Send the light!”

  And a Christlike spirit everywhere be found,

  Send the light! Send the light!

  Let us not grow weary in the work of love,

  Let us gather jewels for a crown above,

  Send the light! Send the light!

  94. MUST I GO, AND EMPTY-HANDED?

  By Charles C. Luther

  Thus my dear Redeemer meet?

  Not one day of service give Him,

  Lay no trophy at His feet?

  Refrain:

  “Must I go, and empty-handed?”

  Must I meet my Savior so?

  Not one soul with which to greet Him,

  Must I empty-handed go?

  Not at death I shrink or falter,

  For my Savior saves me now;

  But to meet Him empty-handed,

  Thought of that now clouds my brow. {Refrain}

  Oh, the years in sinning wasted,

  Could I but recall them now,

  I would give them to my Savior,

  To His will I’d gladly bow. {Refrain}

  Up and work while yet ’tis day;

  Ere the night of death o’ertake thee,

  Strive for souls while still you may. {Refrain}

  Eternity! Eternity!

  Where will you spend eternity?

  Eternity! Eternity!

  Where will you spend eternity?

  Many are choosing Christ today,

  Turning from all their sins away;

  Heav’n shall their happy portion be;

  Where will you spend eternity?

  Eternity! Eternity!

  Where will you spend eternity? {Refrain}

  Leaving the straight and narrow way,

  Going the downward road today,

  Sad will their final ending be,

  Lost thro’ a long eternity!

  Eternity! Eternity!

  Lost thro’ a long eternity! {Refrain}

  Repent, believe, this very hour,

  Trust in the Savior’s grace and power,

  Then will your joyous answer be,

  Saved thro’ a long eternity!

  Eternity! Eternity!

  Saved thro’ a long eternity!

  I'll fly away; (in the morning)

  When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,

  O Lord, you know I have no friend like you

  If Heaven's not my home, then Lord what will I do?

  Though I am weak and poor. {Refrain}
