Author: Sabine Baring-Gould Hymnal: The King of Kings #145 (1915) Refrain First Line: Stand up, stand up for Jesus Lyrics: 1 Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before.
Christ, the royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See His banners go!
Refrain:
Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
Ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high His royal banner,
It must not suffer loss.
2 When we march united,
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. [Refrain]
3 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. [Refrain]
4 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 thro’ countless ages
Men and angels sing. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Onward, Christian soldiers]
