The Son of God Goes Forth to War
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #380 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: Mark 10:38 Lyrics: 1 The Son of God goes forth to war,
A kingly crown to gain;
His blood-red banner streams afar;
Who follows in His train?
Who best can drink his cup of woe,
Triumphant over pain,
Who patient bears his cross below,
He follows in His train.
2 The martyr first, whose eagle eye
Could pierce beyond the grave,
Who saw his Master in the sky,
And called on Him to save:
Like Him with pardon on His tongue,
In midst of mortal pain,
He prayed for them that did the wrong:
Who follows in His train?
3 A glorious band, the chosen few
On whom the Spirit came,
Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew,
And mocked the cross and flame;
They climbed the steep ascent of heaven
Through peril, toil, and pain:
O God, to us may grace be given
To follow in their train! Topics: The Christian Life Struggle and Guidance; Confession; Courage; Cross; Jesus Passion Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS NEWS

Around the Saviour's throne rejoice,

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander (1818-1895) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #380 (2005) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Mark 10:38 Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away,
outside a city wall,
where the dear Lord was crucified,
who died to save us all.
2 We may not know, we cannot tell
what pains he had to bear;
but we believe it was for us
he hung and suffered there.
3 He died that we might be forgiven,
he died to make us good,
that we might go at last to heaven,
saved by his precious blood.
4 There was no other good enough
to pay the price of sin;
he only could unlock the gate
of heaven, and let us in.
5 Oh, dearly, dearly has he loved,
and we must love him too,
and trust in his redeeming blood,
and try his works to do. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Passion and Death; Christian Year Good Friday Languages: English Tune Title: HORSLEY
