Representative Text

1 Tramp, tramp, tramp, oh, hear us coming,
Little soldiers of the King,
Flags unfurled and banners flying,
Loudly let our watchword ring.

Refrain:
Onward, forward,
Let us march against the foe;
In our leader’s name advancing,
On to vict’ry we will go.

2 Over vale and hill resounding,
Children hear the mighty call,
Come and join the royal army,
In our ranks there’s room for all. [Refrain]

3 Jesus is our mighty captain,
His command we must obey,
Forward march and never falter,
We shall surely win the day. [Refrain]
