Author: Lanta W. Smith Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: The world must be taken for the Lord Refrain First Line: Ever onward, Christian soldier Lyrics: 1. The world must be taken for the Lord; Onward, soldiers, and arm ye for the fight. In His name now watch and fight and pray, Till all foes fear and tremble at the sight. Refrain Ever onward, Christian soldier, The world must be taken for the Lord, Ever onward be your watchword, The world must be taken for the Lord. 2.
