Author: Frederick L. Hosmer Appears in 34 hymnals First Line: From age to age they gather, all the brave of heart and strong Lyrics: 1 From age to age they gather, all the brave of heart and strong;
In the strife of truth with error, of the right against the wrong;
I can see their gleaming banner, I can hear their triumph song;
The truth is marching on!
2 ‘In this sign we conquer,’ ’tis the symbol of our faith,
Made holy by the might of love triumphant over death;
‘He finds his life who loseth it,’ forevermore it saith:
The right is marching on!
3 The earth is circling onward out of shadow into light;
The stars keep watch above our way, however dark the night;
For every martyr’s stripe there glows a bar of morning bright;
And love is marching on!
4 Lead on, O cross of martyr faith, with thee is victory;
Shine forth, O stars and reddening dawn, the full day yet shall be;
On earth His kingdom cometh, and with joy our eyes shall see,
Our God is marching on. Used With Tune: HOSMER
