1 We are marching on to glory,
Telling out the wondrous story
Of the blessed, risen, ever living Christ;
How he came and brought salvation,
To the lost of ev’ry nation,
And his precious blood for all our sins sufficed.

Refrain:
Marching, marching on to glory,
Marching with our banners all unfurl’d,
Over all victorious,
With a hope all glorious,
We will herald Jesus to the World!

2 We are marching on with gladness,
Knowing naught of care or sadness,
Hailing Jesus ever as our glorious Light;
We will never cease our praying,
While his blessed will obeying,
And will fight on, keeping faith and armor bright. [Refrain]

3 O the joy that’s set before us,
Since no foe can triumph o’er us,
Nor a leader ever stand against our Lord.
We will look up, lift up ever,
We will falter not—no, never,
‘Till the world shall crown him King, with one accord. [Refrain]
