Author: F. E. Belden Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1389 (1886) First Line: Raise the standard high Lyrics: 1 Raise the standard high,
Sound the gath'ring cry,
Let the evil kingdom fall;
With a purpose true,
And a will to do,
Sons of freedom, come ye all.
Chorus:
Raise the temp'rance standard high,
Shout the mighty battle cry;
Let the evil kingdom fall,
Sons of freedom, come ye all.
2 Over sea and land,
With an iron hand,
Has the monarch held his sway;
But his rule shall cease,
And the reign of peace
Usher in the golden day. [Chorus]
3 Let the right prevail,
Let the evil fail
In the conflict fierce and long,
Till the land is free,
And the victory
Crowns the temp'rance army strong. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Temperance Songs Scripture: Isaiah 62:10 Tune Title: RAISE THE STANDARD HIGH
