2 Set up Thy standard, Lord, that

we

Who claim a heavenly birth May march with Thee to smite the lies

That vex Thy groaning earth.

3 Ah! would we join that blest array, And follow in the might

Of Him, the Faithful and the True,
In raiment clean and white!

4 We fight for truth, we fight for God,

Poor slaves of lies and sin!

He who would fight for Thee on earth

Must first be true within.

5 Then, God of truth for Whom we long,

Thou Who wilt hear our prayer, Do Thine own battle in our hearts, And slay the falsehood there.

6 Still smite, still burn, till naught is left

But God's own truth and love; Then, Lord, as morning dew come down,

Rest on us from above.

7 Yea, come; then, tried as in the fire,

From every lie set free,

Thy perfect truth shall dwell in us,
And we shall live in Thee. Amen.
THOMAS HUGHES, 1859.

2 Alike we share Thy tender care;
We trust one heavenly Friend;
Before one mercy-seat in prayer
In confidence we bend;
Alike we hear Thy loving call;
One heavenly vision scan,

A-men.

4 Close knit the warm fraternal tie That makes the whole world one;

One Lord, one faith, one hope for all, Our discords change to harmony

The brotherhood of man.

3 Bring in, we pray, the glorious day
When battle cries are stilled;
When bitter strife is swept away
And hearts with love are filled.

Like angel-songs begun:

At last, upon that brighter shore
Complete Thy glorious plan,

And heaven shall crown for evermore
The brotherhood of man.

Amen.

CHARLES H. RICHARDS, 1910.
