Truehearted, wholehearted,
faithful and loyal,
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be;
Under the standard
exalted and royal,
Strong in Thy strength
we will battle for Thee.
Peal out the watchword!
Silence it never!
Song of our spirits,
rejoicing and free;
Peal out the watchword!
Loyal forever!
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be.
Wholehearted!
Savior belovèd and glorious,
Take Thy great power
and reign Thou alone,
Over our wills
and affections victorious—
Freely surrendered
and wholly Thine own.
Peal out the watchword!
Silence it never!
Song of our spirits,
rejoicing and free;
Peal out the watchword!
Loyal forever!
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be.
Truehearted, wholehearted!
Fullest allegiance
Yielding henceforth
to our glorious King!
Valiant endeavor
and loving obedience
Freely and joyously
now would we bring.
Peal out the watchword!
Silence it never!
Song of our spirits,
rejoicing and free;
Peal out the watchword!
Loyal forever!
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be.
Truehearted! Savior,
Thou knowest our story,
Weak are the hearts
that we lay at Thy feet,
Sinful and treacherous!
yet, for Thy glory,
Heal them, and cleanse them
from sin and deceit.
Peal out the watchword!
Silence it never!
Song of our spirits,
rejoicing and free;
Peal out the watchword!
Loyal forever!
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be.
Half-hearted, false-hearted!
Heed we the warning!
Only the whole
can be perfectly true;
Bring the whole offering,
all timid thought scorning,
Truehearted only
if whole-hearted too.
Peal out the watchword!
Silence it never!
Song of our spirits,
rejoicing and free;
Peal out the watchword!
Loyal forever!
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be.
Half-hearted! Savior,
shall aught be withholden,
Giving Thee part
Who has given us all?
Blessings outpouring,
and promises golden
Pledging, with never
reserve or recall!
Peal out the watchword!
Silence it never!
Song of our spirits,
rejoicing and free;
Peal out the watchword!
Loyal forever!
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be.
Half-hearted? Master,
shall any who know Thee
Grudge Thee their lives,
Who has laid down Thine own?
Nay! we would offer
the hearts that we owe Thee,
Live for Thy love
and Thy glory alone.
Peal out the watchword!
Silence it never!
Song of our spirits,
rejoicing and free;
Peal out the watchword!
Loyal forever!
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be.
Sisters, dear sisters,
the call is resounding,
Will ye not echo the silver refrain,
Mighty and sweet,
and in gladness abounding?–
“Truehearted, whole-hearted!”
ringing again.
Peal out the watchword!
Silence it never!
Song of our spirits,
rejoicing and free;
Peal out the watchword!
Loyal forever!
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be.
Jesus is with us,
His rest is before us,
Brightly His standard
is waving above!
Sisters, dear sisters,
in gathering chorus,
Peal out the watchword
of courage and love!
Peal out the watchword!
Silence it never!
Song of our spirits,
rejoicing and free;
Peal out the watchword!
Loyal forever!
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be.
Whole-hearted! Saviour,
belovèd and glorious,
Take Thy great power
and reign Thou alone
Over our wills
and affections victorious,
Freely surrendered
and wholly Thine own.
Peal out the watchword!
Silence it never!
Song of our spirits,
rejoicing and free;
Peal out the watchword!
Loyal forever!
King of our lives,
by Thy grace we will be.
