Representative Text

1 We are banded together for Jesus still to live,
And to follow wherever he may lead;
And the grace he has promised we know that he will give
If, believing, his precious name we plead.

Refrain:
Then be firm to the end, then be firm to the end;
Let us never, never lay our armor down,
For the tried and the faithful, who serve the Master here,
Shall be jewels to sparkle in his crown.

2 We are marching together along the blessed way
Our Redeemer commandeth us to go;
With the cloud and the pillar to lead us night and day,
While beside us the living waters flow. [Refrain]

3 We are marching together, sore conflicts we shall meet,
But the Saviour beholds us from his throne;
With the sword of the Spirit temptations we'll defeat,
Our protector will leave us not alone. [Refrain]

4 We are marching together beyond these fading skies,
We are looking beyond the billow's foam;
We are waiting and watching with calm and trusty eyes,
Till the Saviour shall come and call us home. [Refrain]
