We are for the great migration

- We are for the great migration,
And, O Lord, we seek Thy face.
Who? and when? and where? Lord Jesus,
Grant us now Thy blessed grace. - This is for Thy house and city,
This is for Thy kingdom, Lord;
To subdue the earth before us
We are all in one accord. - Of the Father, through Christ Jesus,
By the Spirit's flowing free;
In our spirit, on the church-ground—
This the way of victory. - Burden us with Thy great plan, Lord;
Consecrated we would be.
To fulfill Thy holy purpose
Saturate us thoroughly. - Build, O build us all together,
Let us here our lessons learn,
Send us forth to many cities
For the church-life there to burn. - Many places need a beachhead
To bring in Thy reign and rule.
Lord, build up the local churches
That Thy kingdom come in full! - Then the earth will give Thee glory
And the devil get the shame.
For Thy kingdom's rule and reigning
All will praise Thy glorious name. - Blessed days are quickly coming;
We rejoice and give Thee praise
For the glorious consummation
And Thy royal ruling days. - Hallelujah to the Father,
Hallelujah to the Son,
Hallelujah to the Spirit—
Hallelujah, it is done! - Hallelujah for the churches,
Hallelujah for the saints,
Hallelujah for the meetings
And their holy, sweet constraints! - Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah we will sing;
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah to our King!
