| Lyrics |
1 Rouse we, endev'rers, hark hark, the call,
Speed to the rescue, one and all;
Hearts that are loyal, brave and true,
Now to our King we pledge anew.
Chorus:
Forward, forward, this our acclaim;
Praise our Commander, praise His name;
Great is the love to us revealed,
He is our watchword, faith, our shield.
2 Rouse we, endeav'rers we today,
Lost ones are pleading, haste away,
Out in the darkness where they roam
Far from the light and far from home.
3 Rouse we, endeav'rers, work to the end,
Work till the evening shades descend,
Oh what a vict'ry we may win
Over the ranks of death and sin.
4 Rouse we, endeav'rers, turn not aside,
Heed not the tempter, trust our Guide;
Strike for the right and face the foe,
Hold up our standard while we go.
5 Rouse we, endeav'rers, soon we shall rest,
Home with our Saviour pure and blest;
Then with the friends that wait us there,
Crowns of rejoicing we shall wear.
