Battle Hymn

Hear the tread of com­ing mill­ions

Marching on—the hosts of God;

Coming from the isles and na­tions

Ransomed by the Sav­ior’s blood.

Hear them shout­ing! Hear them shout­ing!

He hath washed us in His blood!

Hear them shout­ing! Hear them shout­ing!

He hath washed us in His blood!

God His pro­mise is ful­fill­ing

To His well be­lov­èd Son:

Heathen na­tions to Him giv­ing

For a her­it­age

His own.

See them com­ing! See them com­ing!

All to wor­ship at His throne

See them com­ing! See them com­ing!

All to wor­ship at His throne.

Christ is see­ing of the tra­vail

Of His lov­ing

wait­ing

soul

In the tri­umphs of the Gos­pel

Over men

from pole to pole.

Hear their prais­es! Hear their prais­es!

Like the voice of wa­ters roll

Hear their prais­es! Hear their prais­es!

Like the voice of wa­ters roll.

Soldiers of the cross

long wait­ing

For the com­ing of this day—

Toiling

weep­ing

watch­ing

pray­ing—

Courage take and march away.

We have tri­umphed! We have tri­umphed!

Soon you’ll hear our cap­tain say

We have tri­umphed! We have tri­umphed!

Soon you’ll hear our cap­tain say.

When the long re­treat has sound­ed

And our chief­tain leads the way

By His con­quer­ing hosts sur­round­ed

To the realms of end­less day;

Then

how bless­èd! Oh

how bless­èd!

To have fought to win the day

Then

how bless­èd! Oh

how bless­èd!

To have fought to win the day.

Hallelujah! Hal­le­lu­jah!

Hallelujah to the Lamb!

All in earth and all in Heav­en

Sound the prais­es of His name!

Mighty Sav­ior! Mighty Sav­ior!

We will con­quer in Thy name

Mighty Sav­ior! Migh­ty Sav­ior!

We will con­quer in Thy name.
