Let’s take the land! The land that God has given us

Let’s take the land! The land that God has given us;

In all our living

Christ can be so much:

To take this land

we have th’ equipment that we need—

The blood

the Word

the Spirit

and the church.

Sisters:

Let’s take the land! O Christian brothers

The land that God has given us.

Be strong and take it

for we can make it

And gain this land so glorious!

Brothers:

Let’s take the land! O Christian sisters

And to these things give earnest heed.

The Lord implores us; He’s gone before us

And given everything we need!

We have the blood! Christ is our spotless offering

Who gave Himself

our God to satisfy;

And so we come with boldness to the throne of grace

And all day long

the precious blood apply.

We have the Word! The written Word’s our daily food;

We mix this Word with faith and say “Amen!”

Then thro’ the day

the spoken Word will speak to us

And regulate our living from within.

The Spirit’s ours! The Spirit of reality

He’s independent of the way we feel;

He dwells in us

and teaches us to dwell in Him

And guides us into everything that’s real.

We have the church! All saints are needed to possess

The fullness of this vast reality;

Together we will gain this all-inclusive Christ

And He to us our everything will be.
