Royal Banners forward go; The Cross shines forth in mystic glow; Where He in flesh, our flesh Who made, Our sentence bore, our ransom paid.

Where deep for us the spear was dy'd, Life's torrent rushing from His side, To wash us in that precious flood Where mingled Water flow'd, and Blood.

Fulfill'd is all that David told In true Prophetic song of old; Amidst the nations, saith he, Hath reign'd and triumph'd from the Tree.
