Are Ye Able =========== m: Harry S. Mason, 1924 w: Earl Marlatt, 1926 [Verse 1] "Are ye able," said the Master, "to be crucified with me?" "Yea," the sturdy dreamers answered, "to the death we follow thee." [Refrain] Lord, we are able. Our spirits are thine. Remold them, make us, like thee, divine. Thy guiding radiance above us shall be a beacon to God, to love, and loyalty. [Verse 2] Are ye able to remember, when a thief lifts up his eyes, that his pardoned soul is worthy of a place in paradise. [Refrain] [Verse 3] Are ye able when the shadows close around you with the sod, to believe that spirit triumphs, to commend your soul to God? [Refrain] [Verse 4] Are ye able? Still the Master whispers down eternity, and heroic spirits answer, now as then in Galilee. [Refrain]
