1. Brightly gleams our banner, Pointing to the sky, | |||
Waving on Christ's soldiers To their home on high. | |||
Marching through the desert, Gladly thus we pray, | |||
Still with hearts united Singing on our way. | |||
''R.Brightly gleams our banner, Pointing to the sky,'' | |||
''Waving on Christ's soldiers To their home on high.'' | |||
2. Jesus, Lord and Master, At Thy sacred feet, | |||
Here, with hearts rejoicing, See Thy children meet. | |||
Often have we left Thee, Often gone astray; | |||
Keep us, mighty Saviour, In the narrow way. | |||
''R.'' | |||
3. Pattern of our childhood, Once Thyself a child, | |||
Make our childhood holy, Pure, and meek, and mild. | |||
In the hour of danger Whither can we flee, | |||
Save to Thee, dear Saviour, Only unto Thee? | |||
''R.'' | |||
4. All our days direct us In the way we go; | |||
Crown us still victorious Over every foe; | |||
When the march is over, Then some rest and peace, | |||
Jesus in His beauty, Songs that never cease. | |||
''R.'' | |||
