Sound The Battle Cry! See, The Foe Is Nigh;
Raise The Standard High For The Lord;
Gird Your Armor On, Stand Firm Every One;
Rest Your Cause Upon His Holy Word.
Rouse, Then, Soldiers, Rally Round The Banner,
Ready, Steady, Pass The Word Along;
Onward, Forward, Shout Aloud, “Hosanna!”
Christ Is Captain Of The Mighty Throng.
Strong To Meet The Foe, Marching On We Go,
While Our Cause We Know Must Prevail;
Shield And Banner Bright, Gleaming In The Light,
Battling For The Right We Ne’er Can Fail.
O Thou God Of All, Hear Us When We Call,
Help Us One And All By Thy Grace;
When The Battle’s Done, And The Victory’s Won,
May We Wear The Crown Before Thy Face.
