Onward Christian Soldiers |
|
Onward Christian soldiers, marching as to war, |
With the cross to Jesus going on before; |
Christ the royal master, leads against the foe; |
Forward into battle, see His banners go! |
|
Onward, Christian soldiers! Marching as to war |
With the cross of Jesus going on before; |
|
At the sign of triumph, satan’s host doth flee; |
On then Christian soldiers, on to Victory; |
Hell’s foundations quiver at the shout of praise; |
Brothers, lift your voices, loud your anthems raise |
|
Crowns and thrones may perish Kingdoms rise and wane |
But the church of Jesus constant will remain |
Gates of hell can never `gainst that church prevail |
We have Christ’s own promise and that cannot fail |
|
Onward then ye people, join our happy throng; |
Blend with ours your voices in the triumph song |
Glory, laud and honour unto Christ the King, |
This thro’ countless ages men and angels sing. |
