In Lands Across the Sea

Let free­men’s hearts grow bold­er;

Let free­dom’s ban­ner fly

Where God’s four winds un­fold her

To God’s un­chart­ed sky.

His Word and not ano­ther’s

Is pledged to li­ber­ty;

His hand hath made men bro­thers

His truth shall make men free.

Where free­dom’s flag is fly­ing

In lands across the sea

On Thee we are re­ly­ing

Great God

we count on Thee!

For right is right for­ev­er

Though men have crowned the wrong

And truth shall per­ish nev­er—

Great God

how long? how long?

When our brave lads are dy­ing

In lands across the sea

On Thee we are re­ly­ing

Great God

they die for Thee!

And if we lay them sleep­ing

In lands be­yond the sea

God

have them in Thy keep­ing—

We leave them there with Thee.
