215. Christian Leaguers, Rally

1 Christian Leaguers, rally
At the Lord's command,
'Neath the cross of Jesus
Let us take our stand.
Pledging life-long service
From our days of youth,
Wholly consecrated
To the cause of Truth.

Chorus:
Forward, Christian Leaguers
Of this royal band!
For the Church of Jesus
Loyally we stand!

2 On we march to battle,
Facing hosts of sin;
They are strong and many,
But we hope to win:
Jesus is the Leader
Of our royal band;
By His grace we'll conquer
At His safe command. [Chorus]

3 Onward then, ye Leaguers,
Led by Christ, our Lord,
Trusting in His promise,
Use in faith your sword,
Fight till eve of battle,
Soon the war will cease,
Soon the word of triumph
Brings eternal Peace. [Chorus]
