The Cyber Hymnal ‎#87

87. All Along the Line

1. If we tremble in our fear,
If we falter in our place,
Our great commander’s near,
We’ll look on Jesus’ face.
Tho’ the hosts of sin are coming,
We’ll not falter nor give way;
’Neath the banner-cross of Jesus
We will surely win the day.

Refrain
All along the line stand together for Jesus,
Fighting for Him as we march on the foe;
Ring out the slogan, He will never leave us,
Victory where’er we go!

2. If the battle rages fierce,
In our Jesus we will trust;
Think how His side was pierced,
On Calvary for us!
For He leads, our loving Savior,
And inspires us all to say,
’Neath the banner-cross of Jesus
We will surely win the day. [Refrain]

3. When the battle has been fought
And the conflict we have won,
When we stand before His throne,
He’ll say to us, Well done.
We have fought the fight for Jesus
And have conquered sin’s fell sway;
’Neath the banner-cross of Jesus
We will surely win the day. [Refrain]
