We’re sol­diers, and we’re march­ing on
To our Im­ma­nuel’s land;
With mu­sic we will pass along,
A hap­py, faith­ful band.

Refrain

Glory! we sing to Christ our king,
While we His tem­ples throng;
Let Glo­ry in the high­est! be
Our ev­er­last­ing song.

We’ve foes to fight, we’ve fields to win,
We’ve crowns of life to gain;
Then strike and con­quer ev­ery sin,
The vic­to­ry at­tain.

Refrain

We’ll take the hel­met, sword and shield;
Begirt with truth and love,
We’ll fight, nor ev­er quit the field
Till called to rest ab­ove.

Refrain

Salvation shall our hel­met be,
Our breast­plate, love and faith;
Clad in this glo­ri­ous pa­no­ply,
We’ll all fight on till death.

Refrain

Then, when the vic­t’ry we at­tain,
We’ll lay our laur­els down
Before the Lamb that once was slain
To win for us a crown.
