Rise Up, O Men Of God!
Rise up, O men of God!
Have done with lesser things.
Give heart and mind and soul and strength
To serve the King of kings.
Rise up, O men of God!
The kingdom tarries long.
Bring in the day of brotherhood
And end the night of wrong.
Rise up, O men of God!
The church for you doth wait,
Her strength unequal to her task;
Rise up and make her great!
Lift high the cross of Christ!
Tread where His feet have trod.
As brothers of the Son of Man,
Rise up, O men of God!
~ William P. Merrill, 1911

What a handsome looking group! And this hymn is perfect for Father’s Day. May the men of God rise up and declare His Name!
Such a darling picture Ellen B.!
Last week our pastor was talking about the strength of the church in the last days how she has so little of it compared to the 1st Century church, but there is that which is weak that the Lord can keep strong!
I hope you have a blessed Sunday!!!
