Hymn No. 47 |
Blow th' trumpet in Sion, set th' standard on high
Proclaim to the world that Jehovah is nigh;
That th' slaves who of evil and Satan complain,
May rally around it, their freedom to gain.
The standard of Sion's the law of the Lord,
That He hath for ages reveal'd in His Word,
Which He unto Moses on Horeb did give,
And th' watchword is, keep My commandments and live.
In th' Gospel of John it may plainly be read
How Jesus, the Son of Jehovah, hath said,
Keep My sayings, and prove to My Father above,
That ye, through obedience, abide in My love.
With Jesus in Sion the twelve tribes will stand,
When they've fought and regained their forefather's land;
When, through Him, they've overcome death and the grave,
Then th' banner of love o'er the ransom'd shall wave.
