Onward, then, ye faithful

Representative Text

1 Onward, then, ye faithful,
I will be your shield,
Onward to the conflict,
Never, never yield.
My strong arm is with you,
Pow'rful to sustain,
Lean upon me ever,
Lean, and not in vain.

2 For the strength of ages
Thus is giv'n to you,
Trust its mighty power
Evil to subdue.
Onward, then, ye faithful,
I will be your shield,
Onward to the conflict,
Never, never yield.
