HOLD THE FORT.
89

Reinforcements now appearing,
Victory is nigh!

Mighty men around us falling,
Courage almost gone.

In our Leader's name we'll triumph
Over ev'ry foe.

Onward cames our Great Commander
Cheer, my comrades, cheer!

Chorus.
"Hold the fort, for I am coming,"
Jesus signals still,
Wave the answer back to heaven,—
"By thy grace, we will."
