Representative Text

1 We are marching on to glory,
We are marching on to glory,
We are marching on to glory,
Lift the gospel banner high;
Listen to the wondrous story,
Listen to the wondrous story,
Listen to the wondrous story,
How He gain’d the victory;
How few found the glorious way,
Leading to the happy gates of day.

Chorus:
Let us sing,
Let us sing
Of our glorious, glorious victory;
Let us sing,
Let us sing
Of our glorious, glorious victory.

2 When beset by sore temptation,
When beset by sore temptation,
When beset by sore temptation,
Satan’s host against us rose;
With the armor of salvation,
With the armor of salvation,
With the armor of salvation,
Did we triumph o’er our foes;
Now we praise the Lord on high
For our glorious, glorious victory. [Chorus]

3 When the clouds were dark above us,
When the clouds were dark above us,
When the clouds were dark above us,
And the storm came on apace,
He who cares for us and loves,
He who cares for us and loves,
He who cares for us and loves,
Was our shield and hiding-place;
Under His protecting wing,
Now, rejoicing, gladly we will sing. [Chorus]
