Chorus:Onward, Christian soldiers,Marching as to war,With the Cross of Jesus,Going on before.
Verse 1:Onward, Christian soldiers, marching, as to war
With the cross of Jesus going on before;
Christ the royal Master leads against the foe;
Forward into battle, see His banners go.
Verse 2:Like a mighty army, moves the Church of God!
Brothers, we are treading where the saints have trod;
We are not divided all one body we,
One in hope and doctrine, one in charity.
Verse 3:Crowns and thrones may perish, kingdoms rise and wane
But the Church of Jesus constant will remain;
Gates of hell can never 'gainst the Chruch prevail
We have Christ's own promise, and that cannot fail.
Verse 4:Onward then, ye people, join our happy throng;
Blend with ours your voices in the triumph song;
Glory, laud, and honour unto Christ the King;
This through countless ages men and angels sing.
