ONWARD, CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS
Author(s): Peter Pioneer
Songbook: Love Songs Songbook
KeyWords: Fight the Good Fight,
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 banner go!
Chorus:
Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before.
At the sign of triumph
Satan's host doth flee.
On then, Christian soldiers,
On to victory!
Hell's foundations quiver
At the shout of praise.
Brothers, lift your voices,
Loud the anthems raise!
[Repeat Chorus]
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!
[Repeat Chorus]
Onward then, ye people,
Join our happy throng.
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song.
Glory, laud, and honor
Unto Christ the King;
This through countless ages
Men and angels sing!
