Men of God, Go Take Your Stations

Men of God

go take your sta­tions;

Darkness reigns through­out the earth:

Go pro­claim among the na­tions

Joyful news of heav’n­ly birth;

Bear the tid­ings

Of the Sav­ior’s match­less worth.

Of His Gos­pel not asham­èd

As the pow­er of God to save

Go

where Christ was nev­er nam­èd

Publish free­dom to the slave;

Blessèd free­dom!

Such as Zi­on’s child­ren have!

What though earth and hell unit­ed

Should op­pose the Sav­ior’s plan?

Plead His cause

nor be af­fright­ed

Fear ye not the face of man;

Vain their tu­mult

Hurt His work they nev­er can.

When ex­posed to fear­ful dan­gers

Jesus will His own de­fend;

Borne afar

midst foes and strang­ers

Jesus will ap­pear your friend;

And His pre­sence

Shall be with you to the end.
