Onward, Christian Soldiers

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!
Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before

At the name of Jesus
Satan’s host doth flee;
On then, Christian soldiers
On to victory!
Hell’s foundations quiver
At the shout of praise
Brothers, lift your voices
Loud your anthems raise!

Like a mighty army
Moves the Church of God:
Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod;
We arе not divided
All one Body we
Onе in faith and Spirit
One eternally

Crowns and thrones may perish
Kingdoms rise and wane;
But the Church of Jesus
Constant will remain
Gates of hell can never
’Gainst the Church prevail;
We have Christ’s own promise
Which can never fail

Onward, then, ye people!
Join our happy throng;
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song
Glory, laud and honor
Unto Christ, the King
This through countless ages
Men and angels sing
