Author: F. A. B. Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: List to the sentry's call, "Who goes there?" Refrain First Line: Fall into line and await the call to battle Lyrics: 1. List to the sentry's call, "Who goes there?" A sound of martial tread upon the air Tells us of a surprise; Error in truth's disguise Once more to rout us tries While unaware. Chorus: Fall into line and await the call to battle; Fear not the foe, nor the cannon's mighty rattle; For truth and righteousness stand, and our God shall bless With victory till we the field possess. 2. Often the enemy has made attack, Oft in disorder too been beaten back; God bids us never yield; He'll save to us the field And give, as truth we wield, The strength we lack. [Chorus] 3. On, on then to the fray, O Christian host! Let God forever be your strength and boast, Forward at His command, He leads with His own hand; Then faithful ever stand At duty's post. [Chorus] 4. Ere long God's truth shall triumph ev'rywhere; The faithful ones shall then His glory share; Error shall down be hurled, Love's banner be unfurled, And o'er a sinless world Float ever there.

Launch the Life-Boat!

Author: A. T. G. Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: The tempest broods over the billows Refrain First Line: Launch away! Launch away! Lyrics: 1. The tempest broods over the billows, The storm banner's folds are unfurled, And shadows of night are descending In gloom on a slumbering world; Far out on the perilous ocean There's many a frail craft afloat; Let us haste, ere too late for the rescue, Up! comrades, and launch the life-boat. Chorus: Launch away! Launch away! Tho' loudly the mad surges roar. Launch away! Launch away! And fearlessly bend to the oar. Hark! borne on the wings of the tempest, There comes a wild, pitiful note: 'Tis the death wail of perishing dear ones, Up! comrades, and launch the life-boat, the life-boat. 2. Alas! for the frail barks that wander, And aimlessly drift out to sea; Alas! for the white sails that sparkle, And idly dance on as in glee; The thunders that herald destruction Peal forth with a threatening note, As the swift pinioned fate is arising, Up! comrades, and launch the life-boat. [Chorus] 3. Away, gallant hearts, to your stations, Tho' storms rage and wild billows foam; For soon our great Captain is coming To gather His mariners home. Toil on, while the tempest is beating, Stand firm, while a spar is afloat, Or a weak voice for rescue is calling, Up! comrades, and launch the life-boat. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [The tempest broods over the billows]

Just Over Yonder

There is hope for the opprest, Just over yonder; There is joy for the distrest, Just over yonder. Grief shall there be felt no more, Days of weeping all are o'er; Shadowless immortal shore, Just over yonder. 3. We shall meet the loved ones gone, Just over yonder; There sweet faces look upon, Just over yonder. We shall greet them as of yore, They will love us as before; We shall part from them no more, Just over yonder. 4. But most wondrous! I shall see, Just over yonder, Him who gave His life for me, Just over yonder. Bleeding then on Calvary; Interceding now for me; Blessed hope, with Christ to be, Just over yonder.
