1 We’re a band of christian soldiers,
Marching on, yes, marching on.
Christ our Captain goes before us,
As we are marching on.

Chorus:
Marching, marching to that land of endless glory,
Telling of the Saviour’s love a wondrous story,
Vict’ry in His holy name we’ll shout and sing,
As we are marching on.

2 Having on the gospel armor,
Marching on, yes, marching on.
Satan’s host will flee before us,
As we are marching on. [Chorus]

3 To a home of endless glory,
Marching on, yes, marching on.
Vict’ry is our song and story,
As we are marching on. [Chorus]
