Hear the Call
Lo! the day of God is breaking;
1
Lo! the day of God is breaking;See the gleaming from afar!Sons of earth, from slumber waking,Hail the bright and Morning Star.
Chorus.
Hear the call! O gird your armor on;Grasp the Spirit's mighty Sword,Take the helmet of salvation,Pressing on to battle for the Lord.
2
Trust in him who is your Captain;Let no heart in terror quail;Jesus leads the gath'ring legions,In his name we shall prevail.
3
Onward marching, firm and steady,Faint not, fear not Satan's frown,For the Lord is with you always,Till you wear the victor's crown.
4
Conq'ring hosts with banners waving,Sweeping on o'er hill and plain,Ne'er shall halt till swells the anthem,"Christ o'er all the world doth reign!"
