Kingdom Songs ‎#187

187. Marching Onward Ever

1 Hear the bugle sounding,
Calling to the fray;
Led by Christ our Captain,
We shall win the day.
See the banner waving,
Floating overhead;
Mighty foes we’re braving
Without fear or dread;

Chorus:
Marching onward ever,
Songs of vict’ry sing,
He will fail us never,
Christ, the glorious King.

2 ‘Gainst the hosts of evil
Bravely we will stand,
Ready to go forward
At the King’s command.
See the banner waving,
Floating overhead;
Mighty foes we’re braving
Without fear or dread; [Chorus]

3 Christ will e’er be with us
In the midst of strife;
Strength He gives and courage
For the stress of life.
See the banner waving,
Floating overhead;
Mighty foes we’re braving
Without fear or dread; [Chorus]
