Verse 1

Rise up, O men of God! His kingdom tarries long. Bring in the day of brotherhood And end the night of wrong.

Verse 2

Let women all rise up! Have done with lesser things. Give heart and mind and soul and strength To serve the King of kings.

Verse 3

Rise up, courageous youth! The church for you doth wait, Her strength unequal to her task; Rise up, and make her great!

Verse 4

Lift high the cross of Christ! Tread where his feet have trod. Disciples of the Son of Man, Rise up, O church of God!
