ering forth on high, And music's stirring breath, Lord God! we stand beneath Thine eye, Arrayed for work of death. When we our stormy battle wage, Thy Spirit be our zeal! In conquering, teach us not man's rage, But Thine own truth to feel. Thy Christ led forth no host to fight, And he disbanded none; But our true life, and our best right, By death alone He won. Dear Lord! if we our lives must give, And give our share of earth, To save, for those that after live, What makes our land's true wnone; But our true life, and our best right, By death alone He won. Dear Lord! if we our lives must give, And give our share of earth, To save, for those that after live, What makes our land's true worth, Lead Thou our march to war's worst lot, As to a peace-time feast; Grant, only, that our souls be not Without Christ's life released! O God of heaven's most glorious host! To Thee this hymn we raise; To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, One God, one voice of praise! --Boston Transcript, Aug. 3.
The cross and the flag.--Bishop Simpson said in a recent sermon :---We will take our glorious flag — the flag of our country — and nail it just below the cross! That is high enough! There let it wave as it waved of old. Around it let us gather: First Christ, then our country! --Albany Evening Journal, June
ades the Southern army. In Col. Bates' regiment, now in Virginia, there are many Christians, among them Capt. Henry, a local preacher of the Methodist church from Summer County. Captain Henry has regular prayer meetings among the soldiers. When present, he leads; but when absent, some of the young men conduct the services. The interest, we understand, in these meetings is constantly increasing. Much good will be accomplished, and young men who have gone into the field bearing the name of Christ, will come back with their Christian armor bright. There is a Christian association in Camp Cheatham, Tennessee, who hold prayer meetings at stated times, and exercise an excellent influence. Rev. W. H. Browning, who spent last Sabbath at the camp, makes a very favorable report of its moral condition. At Sparta, Georgia, I heard Bishop Pierce make one of the most eloquent and thrilling addresses to a vast crowd of soldiers and people, on fast-day, after a sermon. He said:--Did I know a m
overed in pestilent graves! Your comrades are chained in that region of slaves! See the hands that are stretching out Northward in prayer! Hear the cry that is drifting twixt hope and despair! Blow the bugles of War! Shout, Redemption is nigh! Fling your emblems of Liberty out to the sky! Sing a song of Salvation, march manfully on-- For a victory waits you, and Peace can be won. Away! let the world feel the shock as you pass, Like a hurricane onward, through glen and morass; Quick! fight the Good Fight,--help the Lord in his wrath, And plant the old Banner down deep in your path. O dear Land of Freedom! O Hope of the Earth! The crucifix gleams, for Christ knoweth thy worth; Thou shalt rise from this agony cleansed in his sight, From a sin that will melt in the mazes of night. Then, best of all lands will our cherished land be, The Pride of the World, and the Home of the Free! Then Time shall destroy both the spear and the sword, And men shall acknowledge the strength, of the Lord.
