Song 166

See Jehovah’s Army!

(Joel 2:7)

1. See Jehovah’s army,

Loosed from Bab’lon’s chains,

Heralding the Kingdom

In which Jesus reigns.

Boldly they press forward,

Each a volunteer;

Flintlike are their faces,

With no hint of fear.

They trust God Jehovah,

Follow Christ his Son,

Joyfully proclaiming:

“God’s rule has begun.”

2. See Jehovah’s servants

Searching for the sheep,

Whom in Bab’lon’s bondage

The false shepherds keep.

These they try to rescue

With repeated calls;

These they keep inviting

To their Kingdom Halls.

When a sheep they get free,

How they follow through

And persist in teaching

Truths both old and new.

3. See the great crowd marching

Under Christ’s command,

With the faithful remnant,

A courageous band.

Cautious just like serpents,

Dovelike, free from guile,

They brave persecution,

Keep true under trial.

They delight to honor

God their Lord and King;

So in their pure worship,

They are prospering.
