#454Strike for Victory

Strike! O strike for vic-to-ry, Sol-diers of the Lord, Hop-ing in His mer-cy, Trust-ing in His word; What to you the night has been, let now the day be; En-e-mies are march-ing, Foe-men gather strong, Gird! O gird for bat-tle, Haste to the field, Trust-ing in His pow-er, Je-sus is your shield; Long to fight a good fight, Hearb to heart is won, Let us still keep press-ing Till our journey's done.

Lift the gos-pel ban-ner High a-bove the world, Let its folds of beau-ty Ev-er be un-furled; Do not fear the march-ing on-ward, though the fight Till we reach the Jor-dan With our ban-ners bright; See the cross of Cal-v'ry Gleam-ing in the light, With the shin-ing gar-ments And the vic-tor's crown, Till we see the ar-gels Come in glo-ry down.
