Keep the Banner Unfurled
John Hill Luther • English
Primary Scripture: Psalm 20:5
Verse 1
Our country for Jesus, The land of the free, From ocean to ocean, From mountain to sea; The Lord is our Captain, His word is out guide; We’re only to follow, Whate’er may betide.
Chorus
Keep the banner unfurled, And the vict’ry loud sing, Thus to conquer the world For Jesus, our King.
Verse 2
Our country for Jesus, The light of the world; Our triumph is certain, With banner unfurled; For truth is victorious O’er error and race; While love sings melodious The song of the free.
Chorus
Keep the banner unfurled, And the vict’ry loud sing, Thus to conquer the world For Jesus, our King.
Verse 3
The children are calling, Are calling for light, While thousands are praying And toiling with might. Then let us be faithful, The harvest is white; The Bridegroom is coming, Our lamps should be bright.
Chorus
Keep the banner unfurled, And the vict’ry loud sing, Thus to conquer the world For Jesus, our King.
