Triumphant Songs No.2 ‎#34

34. Hark! There’s a Call to the Brave

1 Hark! there’s a call for the brave and true!
Brother, enlist, for the Lord wants you!
Facing the foe with your sword in hand,
Bravely go froth at your Lord’s command.

Refrain:
Hear the call, hear the call,
Pleading for help from one and all;
Hear the call, hear the call,
Pleading for help from one and all.

2 Come to the front, brother, take a stand;
Fall into line at your Lord’s command;
Follow his lead in the earnest fight,
Conquer for God, and for truth and right. [Refrain]

3 Who’ll volunteer in the ranks today,
Ready to plunge in the thickest fray?
Jesus now waits for the brave and true;
Brother, enlist! for the Lord wants you. [Refrain]
