1 I’m so glad I joined this holy band,
Eating grapes and honey from His hand;
Joined it, joined it, of course I joined it,
Joined the holy band.

Chorus:
March on, we shall win the day,
March on, we shall win the day;
Win it? win it? of course we’ll win it,
We shall win the day.

2 Some folks say we’re nothing else but cranks;
It’s because we’ve left the devil’s ranks;
Left it, left it, of course we’ve left it,
Left the devil’s ranks. [Chorus]

3 Some folks wonder why we step so light;
It’s because we know our hearts are right;
Know it, know it, of course we know it,
Know our hearts are right. [Chorus]

4 You may wonder why we jump and shout;
It’s because the old man’s taken out;
Wonder, wonder, of course you wonder
Why we jump and shout. [Chorus]

5 When He comes to take His bride so fair,
We shall rise to meet Him in the air;
Meet Him, meet Him, or course we’ll meet Him,
Meet Him in the air. [Chorus]
