Dear, courageous leader
OF dauntless band,
Thou hast been promoted
To the better land,
There to join dear comrades
Who have gone before,
There to wait our coming
On the golden shore.
Still thy spirit leads us
And faithful we shall stand
Till this warfare's ended
We in the promised land
With loved ones are reunited
And in the courts above
Forever more rejoicing
In the Saviour's love.
