Steadily Marching On

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1883
Composer: Horatio Palmer

Praise ye the Lord

Joyfully sound ho­san­na

Praise the Lord with glad ac­claim.

Lift up your hearts

Unto His throne with glad­ness

Magnify His ho­ly name.

Marching along

Under His ban­ner bright

Trusting in His mer­cy as we go

His light di­vine

Tenderly o’er us will shine

We shall be guid­ed by His hand

Now and for­ev­er.

Steadily march­ing on

With our ban­ners wav­ing o’er us;

Steadily march­ing on

While we sing the joy­ful chor­us;

Steadily march­ing on

Pillar and cloud go­ing be­fore us

To the realms of glo­ry

To our home on high.

Praise we the Lord

He is the King eter­nal

Glory be to God on high.

Praise we the Lord

Tell of His lov­ing kind­ness

Join the chor­us of the sky.

Still march­ing on

Cheerily march­ing on

In the ranks of Je­sus we will go

Home to our rest

Joyfully home where the blest

Gather and praise the Sav­ior’s name

Praise Him for­ev­er.
