The Law of the D.C.D. Now this is the Law of the D.C.D.-- If you would Christ's disciple be, You must hate father, mother, wife, Brethren, sisters, children, life; Count gain and reputation loss, The world and all its pleasures dross, And not care a Damn nor a Twopenny-Toss For aught but Christ and His Blood-stained Cross. Thou D.C.D. I keep conscience clear! Do no wrong; thus know no fear Of men, or devils, of death or hell; Death's the D.C.D.'s marriage-bell. Hell-fire is far too cold for me: I seek God's fire," says the D.C.D. Almighty God's a Consuming Fire, And Christ is coming in Flaming Fire" So I must be--'tis my one desire-- Baptized with the Holy Ghost and Fire." Stir into flame, ye D.C.D.'s, You heart each day upon your knees! Never go forth the Gospel to tell Till you've seen and heard the damned in Hell, Blaspheming, gnawing their tongues for pain, In agony dying, yet living again. And the million a week of living men Rushing into the Devil's Den. It was for the love of the lost that Christ Gave up Heaven and sacrificed His God and Father and glory, and came To earth to save us: Bless His Name! To teach the world the way to God, To bear our sins, to kiss the rod, To die on the Cross our souls to save. JESUS! the Bravest of the Brave. Go forth, ye D.C.D.'s! proclaim The Gospel of God, the glorious Name Of Jesus Christ, God's Holy Son, The Saviour of men, the Only One, Who being just and good and brave, In agony died, His foes to save. Go, D.C.D.! Live, fight, and die For Christ, to save humanity: This is the law of the battlefield-- Conquer! or return on your shield."
