Hymn 565 – ONWARD, Christian Soldiers | C&S English Hymnary

1. ONWARD, Christian Soldiers, Marching as to war With the cross of Jesus going on before Christ the royal meter leads against the foe, Forward into battle see, His barriers go onward. Chorus: Onward Christian Soldiers, marching as to war With the cross of Jesus going on before. 2. At the name of Jesus, Satan’s host doth flee, On then Christian, soldier on the victory march Hell’s foundation, quiver at the shout of praise Brothers lift your voices high and loud your anthems raise. Chorus: Onward Christian Soldiers... 3. Like a mighty army, moves the Church of God Brothers we are treading where the saint have trod We are not divided all one body we, One in hope and one in doctrine one in charity. Chorus: Onward Christian Soldiers... 4. Crowns and throne 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 and this cannot ever fail. Chorus: Onward Christian Soldiers... 5. Onward, then ye people join our happy throng Blend with ours your voices in the triumph song Glory, praise and honour unto Christ the King This through countless ages men and Angels ever sing. Chorus: Onward Christian Soldiers, marching as to war With the cross of Jesus going on before AMEN
