The Daily Dispatch: July 18, 1861., [Electronic resource], Citizens' Oath. (search)
" nothing will be published but such old-fashioned hymns as our oldest soldiers have heard from their childhood; such as Am I a soldier of the Cross," A follower of the Lamb? And shall I fear to own His cause-- Or blush to speak His name?" Or, "Soldiers of the Cress, arise, Lo! your Captain, from the skies. Holding forth the glittering prize, Calls to victory; Fear not, though the battle lower; Firmly stand the trying hour; Stand the tempter's utmost power; Spurn his slavery. Or, "Brethren, while we sojourn here, Fight we must, but should not tear; Foes we have, but we've a friend, One that loves us to the end: Forward, then, with courage go, Long we shall not dwell below; Soon the joyful news will come, Child, your father calls — come home!" Such a book as is proposed to be published will answer an excellent purpose, as all the hymn-books have thus far been published at the North, and this is the first attempt at the South to supply this lack of service.
