Mighty Army of the Young JESUS LIVES—A. F. Myers Mighty Army of the Young 1 Mighty army of the young, Lift the voice in cheerful song, Send the welcome word along, Jesus lives! Once he died for you and me, Bore our sins upon the tree, Now he lives to make us free, Jesus lives! Chorus Wait not till the shadows lengthen, Till you older grow; Rally now and sing for Jesus, Ev’rywhere you go; Lift your joyful voices high, Singing clear thro’ earth and sky, Let the blessed tidings fly, Jesus lives!
