Victory is On the Lord's Side
Thomas Kelly • English
Primary Scripture: 2 Chronicles 13:12
Verse 1
Arise, ye saints, arise! The Lord our Leader is; The foe before his banner flies, And victory is his.
Verse 2
We follow thee, our Guide, Our Saviour, and our King! We follow thee, through grace supplied From heaven's eternal spring.
Verse 3
We soon shall see the day When all our toils shall cease; When we shall cast our arms away, And dwell in endless peace.
Verse 4
This hope supports us here; It makes our burdens light; 'Twill serve our drooping hearts to cheer, Till faith shall end in sight.
Verse 5
Till, of the prize possessed, We hear of war no more; And ever with our Leader rest, On yonder peaceful shore.
