Truehearted with Jesus our glorious king,
In the battle with sin fainting never;
Our song of allegiance we joyfully sing,
As we crown Him triumphant forever.
Refrain
Allegiance, to Jesus,
To Jesus our Savior all glorious!
Truehearted, wholehearted,
Redeemed and victorious forever!
Wholehearted and faithful His law to fulfill,
We are steadfastly on Him relying;
We yield Him obedience, whatever His will,
While His glorious banner is flying.
Refrain
Allegiance to Jesus! brave, loyal and strong,
We the way for His feet are preparing,
As upward and onward we’re pressing along,
To the nations His glory declaring.
