24. Be Loyal

1 Soldiers of the cross, be loyal;
Ever true and earnest be!
Falt’ring not, nor weakly yielding,
You shall gain the victory!

Refrain:
You shall gain, shall gain the victory,
Though the struggle wild and fierce may be!
Soldiers of the cross, be loyal,
Be loyal, be loyal,
Soldiers of the cross, be loyal;
You shall gain the victory!

2 Soldiers of the cross, be loyal;
Hold the gospel banner high!
Marching on with hope and courage,
You shall gain the victory! [Refrain]

3 Soldiers of the cross, be loyal;
Trust the love that rules on high!
Ever bravely on advancing,
You shall gain the victory! [Refrain]
