He into battle leads us;
Enlisted in the army of the Lord are we;
His colors proudly wearing,
His shield and banner bearing,
With Christ, our Captain, marching on to victory!
Refrain:
We’re going thro’ with Jesus!
Forevermore we will be true!
We’re going thro’ with Jesus!
The glorious prize is still in view!
We’re going thro’ with Jesus!
And in His strength we shall prevail;
We’re going thro’ with Jesus!
Our anchor’s cast within the vail.
2 The yoke of bondage galling,
From burdened hearts is falling
Before the onward marching of the Prince of Peace!
The conqu’ring hosts assemble;
And Satan’s armies tremble;
The time is near when wars and tumults all shall cease. [Refrain]
3 Tho’ earthly friends forsake us,
And seeming ill o’ertake us,
Thro’ grace divine we’ll come off conqu’rors in the strife;
We have His word assuring,
If to the end enduring,
We with the faithful shall receive a crown of life. [Refrain]Languages: EnglishTune Title: [We're going thro' with Jesus]
