Hymn 519
Who is on the Lord’s side
1. Who is on the Lord’s side?
Who will serve the King?
Who will be His helpers
Other lives to bring?
Who will leave the world’s side?
Who will face the foe?
Who is on the Lord’s side?
Who for Him will go?
By Thy call of mercy,
By Thy grace divine,
We are on the Lord’s side
Saviour we are Thine.
2. Jesus, Thou hast bought us,
Not with gold or gem
But with Thine own life-blood
For Thy diadem.
With Thy blessing filling
Each who comes to Thee,
Thou hast made us willing
Thou hast made us free.
By Thy grand redemption
By Thy grace divine
We are on the Lord’s side
Saviour we are Thine.
3. Fierce may be the conflict,
Strong may be the foe,
But he King’s own army
None can overthrow,
Round His standard ranging,
Victory is secure,
For His truth unchanging
Makes the triumph sure,
Joyfully enlisting,
By Thy grace divine,
We are on the Lord’s side
Saviour we are Thine.
4. Chosen to be soldiers
In an alien land,
Chosen strong and faithful.
For our Captain’s band,
In the service royal
Let us not grow cold;
let us be right loyal,
Noble, true, and bold.
Master Thou wilt keep us, By Thy grace divine,
Always on the Lord’s side
Saviour always Thine.
