On to Victory

Author: J. H. E. Appears in 20 hymnals First Line: Hark! hark! the trumpet sounding Refrain First Line: Forward, then, with banners waving high Lyrics: 1 Hark! hark! the trumpet sounding, Rise at the break of day, On to the front where sin is abounding, Forward, the call obey; Put on the gospel armor, Go forth in faith to conquer, Hear, hear the Captain’s words inspiring, On, soldiers, on to the fray. Refrain: Forward, then, with banners waving high, Forward, as we shout the battle-cry, Onward in the conflict, hoping, trusting, On to victory! 2 Marching like valiant soldiers, Steady our steps and true, Faith in our Leader, no thought of danger, Fear and alarm, adieu; On, though the world oppress thee, On, though the foe distress thee, Steadfast and firm, keep moving on till Fair Canaan’s land stands in view. [Refrain] 3 Then shall the path be brighter, No more by care oppressed, Firm in our purpose, true in our motives, Hoping for what is best; Trusting the King of glory, Telling the old, old story, Waiting the Master’s call to enter Into the haven of rest.

Author of "Hark 'Tis The Trumpet's Sound!" in The Cyber Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

D. S. Warner

1842 - 1895 Author of "The Gospel Trumpet" in Songs of Victory Warner, Daniel Sidney. (near Marshallville, Wayne County, Ohio, 1842--1895). Church of God. Reared on an Ohio farm. During the Civil War, he substituted for a brother. Later he taught school. He attended Oberlin College briefly in 1865. By 1867 he was licensed to preach by the Western Ohio Eldership of the Church of God (Winebrennerian). His experience in preaching was gained on circuits in Nebraska and Ohio. In 1874 he was in trouble with the Eldership for preaching entire sanctification. Soon he joined the Indiana Eldership. In 1881 he was in trouble with this Eldership over sectism. Warner was an associate editor of the Herals of Gospel Freedom in 1878. this paper was merged with the Pilgrim about 1881, and the new paper was called the Gospel Trumpet, with Warner as its editor. Warner was forced to move the paper about, seeing for firm financial foundations. The publishing work was at last established in Grand Junction, Michigan, enabling Warner to travel more extensively with a group of evangelists. Warner's time was spent in editing the Trumpet, writing books, tracts, and songs, and making evangelistic tours of the United States. --John W.V.

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Composer of "[Hark to the trumpet sounding! Soldier, awake!]" in Gospel Songs for Men Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday­-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
