VERSE 1 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.
CHORUS: Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war. With the cross of Jesus going on before.
VERSE 2 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.
VERSE 3 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.
