Gems and Jewels ‎#30

30. Marching and Singing

1 We’re a happy pilgrim band,
Marching to the promised land,
Guided by our Captain, on we move;
And to cheer us on our way,
We are singing all the day,
Singing as we near the shrine we love.

Chorus:
We are marching all the day,
We are singing all the way,
We are marching all the day,
We are singing all the way.

2 We’ve a Leader bold and brave,
Jesus mightiest to save,
No fierce lion dares to cross our way,
Marching on without a fear,
To our Captain keeping near,
Pilgrims never from our ranks will stray. [Chorus]
