1. Onward, Christian soldiers!Marching as to war,With the cross of JesusGoing 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 JesusGoing on before.
2. At the sign of triumph,Satan’s host doth flee;On, then, Christian soldiers,On to victory.Hell’s foundation quiverAt the shout of praise;Brothers, lift your voices,Loud your anthems raise.
Onward, Christian soldiers,Marching as to war,With the cross of JesusGoing on before.
3. Like a might armyMoves the Church of God.Brothers, we are treadingWhere the Saints have trod.We are not divided,All one body we,One in hope and doctrine,One in charity.
Onward, Christian soldiers,Marching as to war,With the cross of JesusGoing on before.
4. Onward, then, ye people,Join our happy throng;Blend with ours your voicesIn the triumph song;Glory, laud and honor,Unto Christ, the King;This through countless agesMen and angels sing.
Onward, Christian soldiers,Marching as to war,With the cross of JesusGoing on before.
