O Christ, the same through changing years - Conquering and to conquer (Ray Palmer/Johannes Thomas Rüegg)

Conquering and to conquer.

"That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow." (Philippians 2,10)

1. O Christ, the same through changing years,
  thou hast thy Church in safety kept;
thy love hath calmed her rising fears,
  hath heard her when she prayed and wept. (PDF - Midi)

2. Her faithful sons, for love of thee,
  have dared opposing powers to brave;
resolved from every bond to free
  the soul that thou alone canst save.

3. Still for the honour of thy name,
  O give thy servants strength to stand
unmoved by foe, reproach or shame,
  a loving, trusting, dauntless band.

4. O gather to thy peaceful fold
  the lost that on dark mountains stray;
let sinful souls that Cross behold
  whose blood can take their guilt away.

5. Let triumph crown thy holy cause,
  the last strongholds of darkness fall;
the nations learn and keep thy laws,
  and own thee, Jesus, Lord of all!

Ray Palmer, in: The Poetical Works of Ray Palmer, 1876, 15.
