70. Battling for the Right

1 Pressing forward our cause to win,
Conqu’ring ever the hosts of sin,
God’s strong arm we are trusting in,
Battling for the right.

Refrain:
Forward all! let our watchword be,
Let it echo from sea to sea,
In His strength we shall victors be,
Battling for the right.

2 Pressing on ‘neath the noontide’s glow;
Caring not when the rough winds blow,
Pausing not till the foe lies low,
Battling for the right. [Refrain]

3 Pressing forward, a fearless band,
Always under the Lord’s command,
Till as victors we take our stand,
Battling for the right. [Refrain]
