Basics of the Banner

"Thou hast given a banner to them that fear Thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth" (Psalm 60:4).

The banner every Christian waves
Should boldly be displayed
Announcing clearly, "Jesus saves,
Who all our ransom paid!"

It's not for our denomination
This banner is in view,
But for the Gospel of salvation
Because we know it's true!

Let this banner be unfurled,
And passed on to our youth!
Display its message to the world,
That they may know the truth!

The basics of the banner stand;
We need not be mistaken.
It rests upon our Lord's command,
And never shall be shaken.

Lord, we thank You for the banner
And truth that we proclaim.
Help us live in such a manner
That glorifies Your name.
