Flow flash­ing thro’ the plain!
The fight of faith is fierc­er,
The Sav­ior bids us watch and pray,
In Thy praise their songs unite.
The Church in these her princ­es boasts,
And Zion’s daugh­ters poured their lays,
Hear the vic­tors who o’er­came;
Victory is com­ing by and by!
His truth to all pro­claim;
Truth re­veals the pro­mised day.
And the song of an­gels re­sound­ed,
And the song of an­gels re­sound­ed,
Thy walls are strength, and at thy gates
The ho­ly fight they fought;
In si­lent awe they wait,
Break, day of God, sweet day of peace,
The next a brok­en scep­ter takes,
Shorten Thou the sul­try day;
But in our strong­er hours we grasp
In con­cert with the ho­ly dead

war­ri­or

Again and yet again.
Against the pow­ers of dark­ness
O Christ­ian! hear His voice to­day:
In Thine an­gel ar­my stand;
The sol­diers of the heav­en­ly hall,
By day, along th’as­ton­ished lands
All with one clear voice ex­claim,
In a glad, tri­umph­ant song!
Then go in Je­sus’ name.
Not by art of hu­man word,
Praise the Lord! from earth­ly strug­gles
Praise the Lord! from earth­ly strug­gles
Nor shall thy deep foun­da­tions move,
By any lure or guile en­ticed.
Nor know to whom their hom­age thus they yield.
Break, day of God, Oh break,
This roll­ing world will nev­er stand
Let Thy peace for aye sur­round us.
And burn the good fight yet to fight,
Their snow white robes are washed in blood,
