The Battle Song Of The Church

Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 8.8.4.8.8.4 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Fear not the foe, thou flock of God Lyrics: 1 Fear not the foe, thou flock of God, Fear not the sword, the spear, the rod, Fear not the foe! He fights in vain who fights with thee; Soon shalt thou see his armies flee, Himself laid low. 2 Come, cheer thee to the toil and fight; ’Tis God, thy God, defends the right; He leads thee on. His sword shall scatter every foe, His shield shall ward off every blow; The crown is won. 3 His is the battle, His the power, His is the triumph in that hour; In Him be strong. So round thy brow the wreath shall twine, So shall the victory be thine, And thine the song. 4 Not long the sigh, the toil, the sweat, Not long the fight-day’s wasting heat; The shadows come. Slack not thy weapon in the fight; Courage! for God defends the right; Strike home! Strike home! Used With Tune: TAYLOR Text Sources: Hymns of Faith and Hope 2nd series (London, James Nisbet, 1861)

As Thirsts the Hart for Cooling Flood

Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.8.4.8.8.4 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1. As thirsts the hart for cooling flood, So longs my soul, O living God, To taste Thy grace; When unto Thee shall I draw near, O when within Thy courts appear, And see Thy face? 2. How oft I led the happy throngs That sought the house of God with songs Of joy and praise; I ever joined with true delight The multitude that kept aright The holy days. 3. O why, my soul, such hopelessness? Why such disquiet and distress? On God rely; For I shall yet behold His face, Who is my God, and I His grace Will magnify.

Something to Feast the Soul

Author: Mrs. C. E. Taylor Meter: 8.8.4.8.8.4 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Something to feast the soul, O Lord Lyrics: 1. Something to feast the soul, O Lord, Something to gather from Thy Word, Give us today; That, wheresoe’er our feet may roam, We may be drawing nearer home, Each night, we pray. 2. Give us today our daily bread, That we, from Thy rich bounty fed, May grow within; That, overcoming every foe, The sweet reward of faith may know, A rest from sin. 3. Give us a patient spirit, Lord, For all the world cannot accord Such blissful rest. As, when we lean upon Thy Word, Thy precious promises afford To souls oppressed. Used With Tune: TAYLOR Text Sources: Joyful Lays, by Robert Lowry and W. Howard Doane (New York: Biglow & Main, 1884), number 1
