Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.1096
First Line: For Christ and the Church let our voices ring,
For Christ and the Church let our voices ring,
Let us honour the name of our own blessed King;
Let us work with a will in the strength of youth, [of truth.
And loyally stand for the kingdom
For Christ, . . our dear Redeemer,
For Christ . . who died to save ;
For the Church . . . His blood hath purchased ;
Lord, make us pure and brave.
2 For Christ and the Church be our earnest prayer,
Let us follow His banner, the cross daily bear ;
Let us yield, wholly yield, to the Spirit's power,
And faithfully serve Him in life's brightest hour.
3 For Christ and the Church willing offerings make,
Time and talents and gold for the dear Master's sake ;
We will render the best we can bring to Him,
The heart's wealth of love, that will never grow dim.
4 For Christ and the Church let us cast aside,
By His conquering grace, chains of self, fear, and pride ;
May our lives be enriched by an aim so grand ;
Then happy the call to the Saviour's right hand.
