| Added by crosby3145, 19 Jul 2017 One day, when driving through West Virginia, I happened to hear this hymn on the radio. I had always liked it, but it had been a few years since any church I was at sung it, so I’d forgotten the title. Unfortunately, at the end of the tune, no announcement was made, and I was left racking my brains, wondering, “What was that tune?” Fortunately, a few weeks later, it was one of the selections at Temple Baptist Church in Fredericksburg, VA. I circled it in the bulletin and made this arrangement shortly thereafter. Lyrics as rousing as “Sound the battle cry! See, the foe is nigh! Raise the standard high for the Lord!” deserve a stirring, spirited setting, and I hope this arrangement does justice to the tune. | |||
