What Trophy Then?

By WORTHIE HARRIS HOLDEN

By WORTHIE HARRIS HOLDEN
The world's alarm is the march of men. The trembling earth feels their heavy tread, The raining bomb, and destruction's doom; And torch of trench is the burning dead, While woman's heart is their muffled drum. In heaven's kingdom — what trophy then?
There comes for the world yet a fiercer strife, Intense with the great Armageddon day. No might can then baffle that dreadful fray, Till the Judge of the earth shall its power o'erthrow, And the slain of the Lord meet their awful wo— While Christ grants His warriors an endless life.
Our God is urging the march of men, 'Neath the ensign raised by the Lord of all, Inspired with the Spirit's heavenly flame, Intent to alarm, "'Tis the final call!" For glory of God and Immanuel's name. Mid souls saved fore'et — will it profit then?
