Loyal Be

Author: Sylvia Lee Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: O the world in sin is dying, loyal be Refrain First Line: Loyal be to the Lord Lyrics: 1 O the world in sin is dying, loyal be; Go you forth today in Jesus’ name; All the evil hosts defying, loyal be, And His peace and liberty proclaim! Refrain: Loyal be to the Lord, Strive to banish sin and woe; Loyal be, send the Word, Till the world His love shall know. 2 Countless laborers He is needing, loyal be; For the grain is unto harvest white; Let Him not in vain be pleading, loyal be, Gladly toil for Him until the night. [Refrain] 3 Think how Jesus died to save you, loyal be; How He bids you others’ burdens bear; Let not worldly cares enslave you, loyal be; Seek the lost ones, and your blessings share. [Refrain] 4 Whatsoever may oppose you, loyal be; Boldly do your duty, never fear; Looking unto Him who chose you, loyal be; For to bless and keep, He’s ever near. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [O the world in sin is dying, loyal be] Text Sources: Truth and Hope by Alfred E. Helton (Lenoir: NC: Teachers' Music Publishing, 1919)
