Sunday's Hymn: 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

There are countless performances of this particular arrangement of Rise Up, O Men of God on YouTube. This one by the Northern Lights Chorale might be the best.

This is a different arrangement—one of only a few I found—sung by the Wheaton College Men’s Glee Club.
