116. Lift Up the Banner

1 Christian soldiers, go proclaim
Unto ev’ry nation,
Thro’ the pow’r of Jesus’ name,
Full and free salvation,
Tell it out to all the world—
“Holiness unto the Lord,”
Be love’s banner wide unfurled,
Lift it up.

Refrain:
Precious banner of holiness,
Keep it proudly flying,
While God’s armies onward press,
Sinn and hell defying.
Life it up we surely must;
No more trail it in the dust;
Precious banner of holiness,
Lift it up.

2 Tell to ev’ry sin-sick soul,
God Himself hath spoken,
Jesus’ blood makes fully whole,
Sin’s dominion broken,
To the breeze your banner fling,
Uttermost salvation sing,
Let the glorious anthem ring,
Lift it up. [Refrain]

3 Till from ev’ry hill remote,
Ev’ry plain and valley,
Shall the gospel banner float;
To this cause we rally,
Holiness to all declare,
For the coming King prepare,
Till He shall in clouds appear,
Lift it up. [Refrain]
