Shout Hosanna

Representative Text

1 We’ve enlisted in a war,
But ’tis not of flesh and blood,
Glory, glory hallelujah!
We are fighting for a crown
In the kingdom of our God,
Glory, glory hallelujah!

Refrain:
Canaan, bright Canaan,
We’re marching to the happy land of Canaan;
Canaan, bright Canaan,
We’re marching to the happy land of Canaan.

2 The weapons of our war
Are sent us from above,
Glory, glory hallelujah!
We can not fail to conquer
With faith and hope and love,
Glory, glory hallelujah! [Refrain]

3 Our foes are fierce and strong,
But our strength is in the Lord,
Glory, glory hallelujah!
And the vict’ry we shall win,
Trusting ever in His word,
Glory, glory hallelujah! [Refrain]

4 Then we’ll answer each command,
And we’ll trust for every grace,
Glory, glory hallelujah!
Till our leader shall appear,
And we see Him face to face,
Glory, glory hallelujah! [Refrain]
