I Lord, her watch Thy Church is keep-ing: When shall earth Thy rule o - bey?

When shall end the night of weep-ing? When shall break the prom-ised day? d

See the whitening har-vest languish, Wait -ing still the labourers' toil;

Was it vain, Thy Son's deep anguish ? Shall the Strong re - tain the spoil? A-men.

J. BAPTISTE CALKIN, 1872.

I Fling out the ban-ner! let it float Sky-ward and sea-ward, high and wide;

The sun that lightsits shining folds, The Cross, on which the Saviour died. A-men.

8:

2 Fling out the banner! angels bend
In anxious silence o'er the sign;
And vainly seek to comprehend
The wonder of the love divine.

3 Fling out the banner! heathen lands
Shall see from far the glorious sight,
And nations, crowding to be born,
Baptize their spirits in its light.

4 Fling out the banner! sin-sick souls
That sink and perish in the strife,
Shall touch in faith its radiant hem,
And spring immortal into life.

5 Fling out the banner! let it float
Skyward and seaward, high and wide,
Our glory, only in the Cross;

Our only hope, the Crucified!

6 Fling out the banner! wide and high,
Seaward and skyward, let it shine:
Nor skill, nor might, nor merit ours;

We conquer only in that sign.

GEORGE W. DOANE, 1848.
