Rise Up, O Men of
God!
Have Done with lesser things;
Give heart and soul and mind and strength
To serve the King of Kings.
Rise up, O men of God!
His Kingdom tarries long;
Bring in the day of brotherhood
And end the night of wrong.
Rise up, O men of God!
The Church for you does wait;
Her strength unequal to the task;
Rise up, and make her great
Lift high the Cross of Christ!
Tread where his feet have trod,
As brothers of the Son of Man
Rise up, O men of God!
Written by the Reverend W.P. Mertill, 1909
