Christians, Lift Ye Up the Standard!

Christians lift ye up the standard,
My salvation to proclaim!
So that others all around you
Will respect my holy name.
Be to the world a salt and light,
A beacon that is true.
And as you meet your fellow man
Let them see Christ in you.
Clothed in my salvation
Before the nations walk.
And with all humility
And love, of my name talk.
Christians lift ye up the standard,
Glory in the holy One!
Show forth all of God’s creation
And the wonders He hath done.
Sing and cry and shout of Jesus
Joy in Him in one accord.
Christians, lift ye up the standard,
Prepare a pathway for thy Lord!

Isaiah 62:10-12
