Gospel Herald in Song ‎#58

58. Do You Hear a Song Resounding?

1 Do you hear a song resounding thro’ the strife
From the soldiers of the battle-field of life?
They are singing of the banner of our King,
And the grace that shall abundant vict’ry bring.

Refrain:
Ring, ring, ring, ring, song of joy and gladness;
Ring, ring, ring, ring, triumph over sadness,
Christ our Leader, ever near,
Strengthens us with hope and cheer;
Hear the notes of praise resounding, sweet and clear.

2 Join the song, ye weak and wounded in the war,
Sing of rest forever on the Golden Shore;
Sing of love that sweetly binds the broken heart,
Love that everlasting blessing will impart. [Refrain]

3 O be brave and joyous, heroes of the Cross,
Do not pine because of earthly pain or loss;
Since the Lord of hosts is with us all the days,
Lift your voices in a gladsome hymn of praise. [Refrain]
