Brave Christian soldiers, gallantly marching.
Joyfully singing all the bright way,
Gird on your armor, follow your Leader,
Jesus commands you and you must obey.
(Chorus.) Cheerfully marching, faithfully marching.
Christ hath arisen and he leads the way:
Joyfully singing, heartily singing,
Lift up your voices in anthems to-day.
Your Captain loves you, tenderly loves you,
Kindly he speaks to all here to-day:—
"Go, heal the sick, and preach ye my Gospel,
I will be with you, if ye but obey." (Chorus.)
March, valiant soldiers, onward to glory.
Bearing the banner of Truth on the way:
Jesus will guide you, vict'ry awaits you.
Christ hath arisen and calls you to-day. (Chorus.)
—
For withholding of love is the negation of the spirit of Christ, the proof that we never knew Him. that for us He lived in vain.—
