12965. Marching To The Temple

1 We are little pilgrims, happy on our way,
Traveling on the road that leads to endless day;
Walking in the path where angel feet have trod,
Marching to the temple, the temple of God.

Refrain:
Marching to the temple, marching to the temple
Marching to the temple, the temple of God;
Lifting high our banner, the banner of our Lord,
Marching to the temple, the temple of God.

2 We are little soldiers, fighting for the Lord,
Girded with His armor, trusting in His Word;
Fighting in the field where angel feet have trod,
Marching to the temple, the temple of God. [Refrain]

3 We are little Christians, singing on our way,
Working in God’s vineyard, toiling day by day;
Leading in the path where angel feet have trod,
Others to the temple, the temple of God. [Refrain]
