Author: Henry Kirk White Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #268 (1930) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Oft in sorrow, oft in woe,
Onward, Christians, onward go;
Bear the toil, maintain the strife,
Strengthened with the Bread of Life.
2 Let not sorrow dim your eye:
Soon shall ev'ry tear be dry.
Let not woe your course impede:
Great your help, if great your need.
3 Let your drooping hearts be glad;
March, in heav'nly armor clad;
Fight, nor think the battle long:
Vict'ry soon shall tune your song.
4 Onward then to battle move:
More than conqu'rors ye shall prove.
Tho' begirt with many a foe,
Onward, Christians, onward go!
