Composer: | Jas. V. Reid |
1 Onward! Forward! Soldiers of King Jesus!
Moves the Church of God against the foe;
Since in battle He will safely lead us,
Bravely, fearlessly onward we go.
Refrain:
Onward! Forward!
All the world for Jesus, shall our watchword ever be;
Onward! Forward!
While God’s army marches on to certain victory;
O hear the Captain calling, calling, valiant Christian soldiers;
Never lay your armor down unto the conflict shall be over,
And you have won an eternal bright crown.
2 Millions now in heathen darkness lying,
Reach their pleading hands to you and me;
Waken, hasten, to their rescue flying,
Lest their blood on us ever shall be. [Refrain]
3 Gospel heralds of a full salvation,
Labor on from dawn till setting sun;
That the world in this, our generation,
For our Lord and our King shall be won. [Refrain]
