Refrain: Fall in line, fall in line! Lo, the conflict has begun! Let’s away to the fray on the field that must be won; Fall in line, one and all, in His name to dare and do! There are souls to be saved! Ev’ry soldier must be true! 2 Fall in line, fall inline! Only cowards stand and wait. Captive souls cry for help—O their sad and bitter fate! There’s no time to be lost—join the rescue-ranks today— Save a soul while you can! be a hero in the fray! [Refrain] 3 Fall in line, fall inline! Jesus Christ is on ahead. “Follow me!” is His cry “Unto victory be led!” O be strong in the strength of God of Battles now; “We will win tho’ we die!” be each loyal soldier’s vow.
