Words: Justus Falckner; first published in 1697; translated from German to English by Emma Frances Bevan in Songs of Eternal Life, 1858. Falckner (1672-1723) was the first Lutheran clergyman ordained in America.
Music: "Unser Herrscher," Joachim Neander, 1680
Rise, ye children of salvation,
All who cleave to Christ the Head;
Wake, awake, O mighty nation,
Ere the foe on Zion tread;
He draws nigh, and would defy
All the hosts of God most high.
Saints and martyrs long before us
Firmly on this ground have stood;
See their banner waving o'er us,
Conquerors through the Savior's blood.
Ground we hold, whereon of old,
Fought the faithful and the bold.
Fighting, we shall be victorious
By the blood of Christ our Lord;
On our foreheads, bright and glorious,
Shines the witness of His Word;
Spear and shield on battlefield,
His great Name; we cannot yield.
When His servants stand before Him
Each receiving his reward,
When His saints in light adore Him,
Giving glory to the Lord;
"Victory!" our song shall be
Like the thunder of the sea.
