Mourn for the thousands slain,

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 502 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

Mourn for the thousands slain, The youthful and the strong; Mourn for the wine cup's fearful reign, And the deluded throng.

Verse 2

Mourn for the lost — but call, Call to the strong, the free; Rouse them to shun that dreadful fall, And to the Refuge flee.

Verse 3

Mourn for the lost — but pray, Pray to our God above, To break the fell destroyer's sway, And show His saving love.
