133 WE'LL WORK TILL JESUS COMES. DR. Wm. Millek

1. Oh, land of rest, for thee I sigh, When will the moment come,
2. No tran-quil joys on earth I know, No peaceful, shelt'ring dome;
3. To Je sus Christ I fled for rest; He bade me cease to roam,
4. I sought at once my Sav-iour's side, No more my steps shall roam;

[ocr errors]

When I shall lay my armor by, And dwell in peace at home?
This world's a wil-der-ness of woe, This world is not my home.
And lean for suc-cor on his breast Till he con-duct me home.
With him I'll brave death's chilling tide, And reach my heav'nly home.

134 ONWARD, CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS. A. S. SULLIVAN.

1. Onward, Christian soldiers! Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus 2. At the sign of triumph Satan's host doth flee; On then, Christian soldiers, 3. Like a mighty army Moves the Church of God; Brothers, we are treading 4. Crowns and thrones may perish, Kingdoms rise and wane, But the Church of Jesus 5. Onward, then, ye people! Join our happy throng, Blend with ours your voices

Go-ing on be-fore. Christ, the royal Master, Leads against the foe; On to vic-to-ry! Hell's foundations quiver At the shout of praise; Where the saints have trod; We are not di- vid - ed, All one body we, Constant will remain; Gates of hell can never 'Gainst that Church prevail; In the triumph song; Glory, laud, and hon - or Unto Christ the King,

CHORUS.

Forward into battle, See his banners go!
Brothers, lift your voices, Loud your anthems raise.

One in hope and doctrine, One in chari- ty. Onward, Christian soldiers!
We have Christ's own promise, And that cannot fail.

This thro' countless ages Men and angels sing.

Marching as to war,

With the cross of Jesus Go-ing on be-fore.

S. B. GOULD.

and the dew-y eve; Waiting for the har-vest, and the time of reaping, winter's chilling breeze; By and by the har-vest, and the la- bor end- ed, spirit oft-en grieves; When our weeping's o-ver, he will bid us welcome;

CHORUS.

We shall come, re-joic-ing, bringing in the sheaves. Bringing in the sheaves,

bringing in the sheaves, We shall come, re-joic- ing, bringing in the sheaves;

BRINGING IN THE SHEAVES.-Concluded.

Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves; We shall come, rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves.
