|
<p>O God of truth, Whose living Word<br>
|
|
Upholds whate’er hath breath,<br>
|
|
Look down on Thy creation, Lord,<br>
|
|
Enslaved by sin and death.</p>
|
|
<p>Set up Thy standard, Lord, that we,<br>
|
|
Who claim a heavenly birth,<br>
|
|
May march with Thee to smite the lies<br>
|
|
That vex Thy groaning earth.</p>
|
|
<p>Ah! would we join that blest array,<br>
|
|
And follow in the might<br>
|
|
Of Him, the Faithful and the True,<br>
|
|
In raiment clean and white!</p>
|
|
<p>We fight for truth, we fight for God,<br>
|
|
Poor slaves of lies and sin!<br>
|
|
He who would fight for Thee on earth<br>
|
|
Must first be true within.</p>
|
|
<p>Then, God of truth for Whom we long,<br>
|
|
Thou Who wilt hear our prayer,<br>
|
|
Do Thine own battle in our hearts,<br>
|
|
And slay the falsehood there.</p>
|
|
<p>Still smite; still burn; till naught is left<br>
|
|
But God’s own truth and love;<br>
|
|
Then, Lord, as morning dew come down,<br>
|
|
Rest on us from above.</p>
|
|
<p>Yes, come: then, tried as in the fire,<br>
|
|
From every lie set free,<br>
|
|
Thy perfect truth shall dwell in us,<br>
|
|
And we shall live in Thee.</p>
