Hear the call! Hear the call!

Author: W. L. M. Hymnal: International Song Service #162 (1895) First Line: Marching, marching, like a mighty army Lyrics: 1 Marching, marching, like a mighty army, Come the boys and girls from far and near. Tramp, tramp, tramp, tramp, see their banners waving, While the strains of music strike the ear. Who would stand aloof at such a moment? Who refuse to join this grand array? With our Captain glorious, We shall be victorious; Come, then, fall in line without delay. Refrain: Hear the call! Hear the call! How it echoes far away, With our Captain glorious, We shall be victorious; Come, then, fall in line without delay. 2 Wake then, wake then, soldiers, for the battle, Right o'er wrong must certainly prevail! True hearts, clean hands, purpose firm and fearless, Never faltering, never saying "Fail." "All the world for Christ" shall be our motto; Bloodless, conquests thro' the Prince of Peace. When the fight is ended, With our Lord ascended, We shall join in songs that never cease. Refrain: Hear the call! Hear the call! How it echoes far away, When the fight is ended, Without our Lord ascended, We shall join in songs that never cease. Languages: English Tune Title: THE CHRISTMAS ARMY
Hear the call! Hear the call!
