Song and a Sword

"The Lord taketh pleasure in His people: He will beautify the meek with salvation. Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds. Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a twoedged sword in their hand" (Psalm 149:4-6).

Let our song of joy be heard
That praises God for His salvation.
Let the sword of God's own Word
Thus manifest His revelation.

The reason for our joy is plain;
Let that reason be revealed.
Be ready always to explain
By the song and sword we wield.
