(D)Onward, Christian (A)soldiers, marching as to (D)war,
With the cross of (A)Jesus (E)going on (A)before.
Christ, the royal (D)Master, leads against the (G)foe;
Forward into battle see His banners (A)go!

Chorus
(D)Onward, Christian (A)soldiers, marching as to (D)war,
With the (G)cross of (D)Jesus (G)going (A)on (D)before.

At the sign of triumph 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 are not divided, all one body we,
One in hope and doctrine, one in charity.

What the saints established that I hold for true.
What the saints believèd, that I believe too.
Long as earth endureth, men the faith will hold,
Kingdoms, nations, empires, in destruction rolled.

Crowns and thrones may perish, kingdoms rise and wane,
But the church of Jesus constant will remain.
Gates of hell can never gainst that church prevail;
We have Christ’s own promise, and that cannot 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.
