Forward, Christian soldier true
Forward go!
Hark! the Master calls for you,
Forward go!
Put His trusty armor on;
Venture in His strength alone;
Vict’ry surely will be won,
Forward go!

Chorus:
Forward go,
Sounding still the battle-cry!
Forward go,
Resting by and by.
Lo! Your Savior still is near!
Hear His words of hope and cheer;
“I am with you, never fear!”
Forward go!

To the conflict and the strife
Forward go!
Vict’ry means eternal life,
Forward go!
Tho’ sin’s host about you close,
All your danger Jesus knows,
He is stronger than your foes,
Forward go!

Wheresoe’er your Lord may lead,
Forward go!
Never vain excuses plead,
Forward go!
He will your deliv’rer be,
He will make your foes to flee;
His salvation you shall see,
Forward go!
