Fling Out the Banner

Verse 1

God bless our Gospel workers, An army grand and strong; God help you in your battles, To crush out ev’ry wrong; Your Captain goes before you, He leads you to the fray; His arm will never fail you, He’ll surely win the day.

Chorus

Fling out the banner, the Gospel banner, And sing the victor’s song, And sing the victor’s song; To Christ Immanuel, your King In glad hosannas your praises loud prolong.

Verse 2

The foes is strong and mighty, His plots are deep as hell; He spreads his crafty meshes, His victims, who can tell? But God our Lord Jehovah Will not betray our trust; He’ll conquer Satan’s legions, And beat them into dust.

Verse 3

The promise stands eternal, The King of kings shall reign, O’er land and sea and nation, O’er all our broad domain; Good cheer, then, comrades, surely Should speed us on our way; Each soul won for the Kingdom Will hasten on the day.
