Lead on, O King eternal, | |
The day of march has come; | |
Henceforth in fields of conquest | |
Thy tents shall be our home. | |
Through days of preparation | |
Thy grace has made us strong; | |
And now, O King eternal, | |
We lift our battle song. | |
Lead on, O King eternal, | |
Till sin’s fierce war shall cease, | |
And holiness shall whisper | |
The sweet amen of peace. | |
For not with swords’ loud clashing, | |
Nor roll of stirring drums; | |
With deeds of love and mercy | |
The heavenly kingdom comes. | |
Lead on, O King eternal, | |
We follow, not with fears, | |
For gladness breaks like morning | |
Where’er Thy face appears. | |
Thy cross is lifted over us, | |
We journey in its light; | |
The crown awaits the conquest; | |
Lead on, O God of might. |
Lead on, O King eternal, | |
The day of march has come | |
Henceforth in fields of conquest | |
Thy tents shall be our home. | |
Through days of preparation | |
Thy grace has made us strong | |
And now, O King eternal, | |
We lift our battle song. | |
Lead on, O King eternal, | |
Till sin' s fierce war shall cease, | |
And holiness shall whisper | |
The sweet amen of peace. | |
For not with swords' loud clashing, | |
Nor roll of stirring drums | |
With deeds of love and mercy | |
The heavenly kingdom comes. | |
Lead on, O King eternal, | |
We follow, not with fears, | |
For gladness breaks like morning | |
Where' er Thy face appears. | |
Thy cross is lifted over us, | |
We journey in its light | |
The crown awaits the conquest | |
Lead on, O God of might. |
