Refrain: And when the battle’s o’er, And soldiers fight no more, How sweet to rest when shadows come, And waken in the heav’nly home. 2 Put on the armor of your Lord! His holy word your mighty sword; Let faith’s tried shield turn ev’ry dart, And prayer and watching guard your heart. Your breast-plate on, and sword in hand, Against the wiles of Satan stand, That in the end, when all is done, You may o’ercome thro’ Christ alone. [Refrain] 3 O soldiers, haste to meet the foe! With loyal zeal to battle go! Your Captain calls you to His side, He waits your eager steps to guide. His strength will help you on the field, Till ev’ry enemy shall yield; And, when the victory is won, His voice will say, “Well done! well done!” [Refrain] Topics: Christian Conquest; Soldiers of Christ Used With Tune: VICTOR

All is Bright and Cheerful Round Us

Author: J. M. Neale Appears in 46 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All is bright and cheerful round us, All above is soft and blue; Spring at last hath come and found us; Spring and all its pleasures too; Ev’ry flow’r is full of gladness, Dew is bright, and buds are gay; Earth, with all its sin and sadness, Seems a happy place today. 2 If the flow’rs that fade so quickly, If a day that ends in night, If the skies that cloud so thickly Often cover from our sight, If they all have so much beauty, What must be God’s land of rest, Where His sons that do their duty, After many toils are blest? 3 There are leaves that never wither; There are flow’rs that ne’er decay; Nothing evil goeth thither; Nothing good is kept away. They that came from tribulation, Wash’d their robes and made them white, Out of ev’ry tongue and nation, Now have rest, and peace, and light. Topics: Flower Services Used With Tune: NASH
