The Cyber Hymnal ‎#6885

6885. To Victory!

1. We’re marching forward brave and strong,
We’re fighting ever ’gainst the wrong;
Our watchword grand shall be our song,
On, on, for Jesus!

Refrain
On with flying banners!
On with glad hosannas!
Jesus Christ is leading on,
Leading on to victory;
On with flying banners!
On with glad hosannas!
Jesus Christ is leading on,
Leading on to victory.

2. The sins within, and those without,
We’re pledged to conquer and to rout;
They fall as we our war cry shout,
On, on for Jesus! [Refrain]

3. Faith is our shield, protecting, true,
Hope gives us ever strength anew,
The love of God will bring us through,
On, on for Jesus! [Refrain]
