Onward, soldiers! onward today! Christ our Leader calls us away; Quickly hasten forth to the field, March with sword and shield. Refrain “Forward, forward,” thus saith the Lord, Fear not, faint not, trust in his Word: He will guard us, He will defend Till the strife shall end. Onward, soldiers! make no delay; Hear the orders, hear and obey; On to victory, on let us go, Braving every foe. Refrain Onward, soldiers! on for the right, Let our banners wave in the light; Soon the victor’s song we will sing, “Praise to God our King.” Refrain |
