Hymn 1015: O Banner of Jesus, in triumph advancing

O Banner of Jesus, in triumph advancing, Thy folds in the sunlight of beauty unfurled ; From the hill sides afar to the isles of the ocean, [quers the world. Thy glory shall float till it con-

O Banner of Jesus, thou glory-crowned Banner, Thou emblem of hope o'er the nations unfurled ; March on in triumph, march on in beauty, Till Jesus, till Jesu3 has conquered the world.

2. Oh say, can you see where the ranks are now marching ? With banners of beauty like con- querors they come ; They have fought the good fight, and in peace are returning, The ransomed of Zion; oh, welcome them home !

3. Behold where they stand on the green hills immortal, Their weapons unheeded, they rest on the shore ; [glory reposing, There, with heroes and martyrs in Their warfare is ended, they weary no more.
