|
|
<p>It was midnight in the valley, and the camp was dark and still,<br>
|
|
Where the slumb’ring host of Midian lay along the sloping hill,<br>
|
|
When a blinding flash of torches, and a trumpet loud and shrill,<br>
|
|
Threw out the battle cry:</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Blow ye the trumpet, for the Lord hath made us free;<br>
|
|
Your blazing lamps raise high!<br>
|
|
“The Sword of the Lord and of Gideon,” shall be<br>
|
|
Our conqu’ring battle cry.</p>
|
|
<p>Where the faint and fearful thousands had returned at God’s command,<br>
|
|
By the chosen few of faithful, vict’ry came to Gideon’s band;<br>
|
|
Hear them giving God the glory, and around the camp they stand<br>
|
|
And shout their battle cry:</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Christian soldiers, be not fearful; onward with your Captain go;<br>
|
|
Ever “looking unto Jesus” you shall conquer ev’ry foe;<br>
|
|
He hath triumphed—take your trumpets, let the world your vict’ry know;<br>
|
|
Sing loud your battle cry:</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
