166. The Song of Triumph

1 We are marching under the banner victorious;
Leaving all the call of the Commander we love;
Tramp! tramp! Satan’s battlements tremble before us,
“Victory! victory!” echo the courts above!

Refrain:
Strong to meet the foe,
One to the field we bravely go,
Tramp! tramp! tramp!
March! march! march!
Loyal to command,
Shoulder to shoulder we will stand,
“Victory! victory!” is our cry!
Glory to Jesus,
We’ll triumph by and by.
We are marching under the banner victorious;
Leaving all the call of the Commander we love;
Tramp! tramp! Satan’s battlements tremble before us,
“Victory! victory!” echo the courts above!

2 God is with us, strong to support and deliver;
In His might day and night steadily onward we move;
Where He leads, thro’ valley, o’er mountain or river,
We will go for we know infinite is His love. [Refrain]

3 Onward, onward! answer the call of the Leader;
For the right we will fight, fearlessly enter the fray,
Bravely, truly heeding the summons to service,
Valiantly, loyally battle for Christ today. [Refrain]
