12757. Victory Is Coming

1 Victory is coming! send the word along;
Let the glorious banner wave on high!
Satan’s hosts are trembling,
Right must vanquish wrong,
Victory is coming by and by!

Refrain:
Join, ye Christian warriors,
In a glad, triumphant song!
Let the nations hear us as we march along!
Never rest nor falter, banish sin and wrong,
Victory is coming by and by!

2 See our hosts advancing! hear our happy song;
See our shields of faith all gleaming bright!
New recruits are joining as we march along;
Leaving all to battle for the right. [Refrain]

3 Victory is coming! peace will follow soon,
Bringing joy eternal in its smile;
What a vast array will stand before the throne,
When the captives join our rank and file. [Refrain]
