- Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus Going on before!
Christ,the royal Master, Leads against the foe.
Forward into battle See his banners go.
Refrain
On-ward,Christian soldiers, Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus Going on before! - Like a mighty army Moves the church of God:
Brothers, we are treading Where the saints have trod :
We are not divided, All one body we,
One in hope and doctrine, One in charity.
Refrain - Crowns and thrones may perish, Kingdoms rise and wane,
But the church of Jesus Constant will re main ; Gates of hell can never
'Gainst that church prevail;
We have Christ's own promise, And that cannot fail.
Refrain - Onward,then,ye people, Join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices In the triumph song,
'Glo-ry, laud, and honor Unto Christ the King!.'
This thro' countless a - ges Men and an-gels sing.
Refrain
Amen.
