Hail! Hail! Hail!

Allow these soldiers of war,

Whose commander is the Lord,

teach you to fight from your core.

These men have drawn blood

from enemies large and small,

with double-edged swords

that never sleep in their sheath.

---

Hail! Hail! Hail!

Let the charge quicken your feet.

The shouts of victory

cause you to join

the encampment of Shiloh-

bringing every high wall down.

---

There are no spoils in this war.

Everything against our Kingdom

goes into the fire

prepared by Him

who raised us up

to salvation that is our hope.

---

Hail! Hail! Hail!

We’ve all thrown away

those weak old chains

that bound us to Babylon

and have walked free

from then on.

---

New creature. I know you.

Brother, your eyes reminds me

of the many of us

that have been

where you were and know

the things you’ve seen-

in the company of the dead.

---

This I told my comrade

when he came to find aid.

I said;

“Benjamin, I know nothing

and seek to know nothing

except for the Lord and Him crucified.

He alone volunteered and He alone died.

He rose from the grave

and was raised higher.

If there’s anyone to swear your loyalty

it’s to Jesus, the king of all royalty.”

---

Be bold. Be courageous.

The Lord is our strength.

We march not in our name

but in the one above every other.

We should not be ashamed.
