Composer: | Richard Hainsworth |
1 Lift up the gospel banner upon the mountains high,
Proclaim the Saviour’s glory which fills the earth and sky;
Go spread the joyful tidings through all the world around,
And tell to dying sinners, the way of life is found.
Refrain:
Lift up the blessed gospel banner
Upon the plains and mountains high,
Proclaim the Saviour’s grace and glory,
And sing His praise through earth and sky,
Lift up the blessed gospel banner,
From sea to sea and shore to shore,
Till ev’ry nation, By His salvation,
Be saved forevermore.
2 Lift up the gospel banner, let ev’ry sinner see
The path of woe and danger, that from it he may flee,
That all may seek their refuge in Christ the sinners’ friend,
Who only can uphold them and keep them to the end. [Refrain]
3 Lift up the gospel banner upon the mountains high,
Till o’er the earth its glory is seen through ev’ry eye;
For Christ shall reign triumphant, and all His foes shall fall,
But unto those that love Him will He be all in all. [Refrain]
