TABLE OF CONTENTS

“So do not be ashamed of the testimony about

our Lord or of me his prisoner. Rather, join with me

in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God.

He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not

because of anything we have done but because

of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given

us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time...”

–2 Timothy 1:8–9 (NIV)

Shout aloud salvation, and we’ll have another song;

Sing it with a spirit that will start the world along;

Sing it as our comrades sang it many a thousand strong,

As they were marching to Glory.

March on, march on! We bring the jubilee;

Fight on, fight on! Salvation makes us free;

We’ll shout our Saviour’s praises over every land and sea

As we go marching to Glory.

How the anxious shout it when they hear the joyful sound!

How the weakest conquer when the Saviour they have found!

How our grand battalions with triumphant power abound,

As we go marching to Glory.

So we’ll make a thoroughfare for Jesus and His train;

All the world shall hear us as fresh converts still we gain;

Sin shall fly before us for resistance is in vain,

As we go marching to Glory.

Soldiers of our God, arise!

The day is drawing nearer;

Shake the slumber from your eyes,

The light is growing clearer.

Sit no longer idly by

While the heedless millions die,

Lift the blood–stained banner high

And take the field for Jesus.

Storm the forts of darkness,

Bring them down, bring them down!

Storm the forts of darkness,

Bring them down, bring them down!

Pull down the devil’s kingdom

Where’er he holds dominion;

Storm the forts of darkness, bring them down!

Glory, honor to the Lamb,

Praise and power to the Lamb,

Glory, honor, praise and power,

Be forever to the Lamb!

See the brazen hosts of Hell,

Their art and power employing,

More than human tongue can tell,

The blood–bought souls destroying.

Hark! From ruin’s ghastly road

Victims groan beneath their load;

Forward, O ye sons of God,

And dare or die for Jesus.

Warriors of the risen King,

Great Army of salvation,

Spread his fame, His praises sing

And conquer every nation.

Raise the glorious standard higher,

Work for victory, never tire;

Forward march with blood and fire

And win the world for Jesus.

Shout Aloud Salvation

Storm the Forts of Darkness

Lord, I make a full surrender,

All I have I yield to thee;

For thy love, so great and tender,

Asks the gift of me.

Lord, I bring my whole affection,

Claim it, take it for thine own,

Safely kept by thy protection,

Fixed on thee alone.

Glory, glory, hallelujah!

I have given my all to God;

And I now have full salvation

Through the precious blood.

Lord, my will I here present thee

Gladly, now no longer mine;

Let no evil thing prevent me

Blending it with thine.

Lord, my life I lay before thee;

Hear this hour the sacred vow;

All thine own I now restore thee,

Thine forever now.

Blesséd Spirit, thou hast brought me

Thus my all to thee to give;

For the blood of Christ has bought me,

And by faith I live.

Show thyself, O God of power,

My unchanging, loving friend;

Keep me till, in death’s glad hour,

Faith in sight shall end.

In Christ alone my hope is found,

He is my light, my strength, my song;

This Cornerstone, this solid ground,

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.

What heights of love, what depths of peace,

When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!

My comforter, my all in all,

Here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone – who took on flesh,

Fullness of God in helpless babe!

This gift of love and righteousness,

Scorned by the ones He came to save:

Till on that cross as Jesus died,

The wrath of God was satisfied,

For every sin on him was laid;

Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground his body lay,

Light of the World by darkness slain:

Then bursting forth in glorious day,

Up from the grave He rose again!

And as he stands in victory

Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me,

For I am His and he is mine-

Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death,

This is the power of Christ in me;

From life’s first cry to final breath,

Jesus commands my destiny.

No power of Hell, no scheme of man,

Can ever pluck me from His hand;

Till He returns or calls me Home,

Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand!

In Christ Alone

Full Surender

We’ve a Story to Tell

We’ve a story to tell to the nationsThat shall turn their hearts to the right,

A story of truth and mercy,A story of peace and light,A story of peace and light.

For the darkness shall turn to dawning,And the dawning to noonday bright,

And Christ’s great Kingdom shall come to earth,The Kingdom of love and light.

We’ve a song to be sung to the nationsThat shall lift their hearts to the Lord,

A song that shall conquer evilAnd shatter the spear and sword,And shatter the spear and sword.

We’ve a message to give to the nationsThat the Lord who reigneth above

Hath sent us His Son to save usAnd show us that God is love,And show us that God is love.

We’ve a Savior to show to the nationsWho the path of sorrow hath trod,

That all of the world’s great peoplesMight come to the truth of God,Might come to the truth of God.
