Onward Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before.
Christ, the royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See, His banners go!

At the name of Jesus
Satan’s host doth flee;
On then, Christian soldiers,
On to victory!
Hell’s foundations quiver
At the shout of praise:
Brothers, lift your voices,
Loud your anthems raise!

On then, Christian soldiers,
On to victory!

Like a mighty army
Moves the Church of God:
Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod;
We are not divided,
All one Body we—
One in faith and Spirit,
One eternally.

Crowns and thrones may perish,
Kingdoms rise and wane;
But the Church of Jesus
Constant will remain.
Gates of hell can never
’Gainst the Church prevail;
We have Christ’s own promise,
Which can never fail.

Onward, then, ye people!
Join our happy throng;
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song.
Glory, laud and honor
Unto Christ, the King;
This through countless ages
Men and angels sing.

A Christian song both in season and out of season!
Christlike soldiers arise!
The gate of hell shall not prevail!
May the body of Christ continue to wax stronger and the altar burning for CHRIST.
Amen.

The USA has just stated they need to reinstate the draft. June 2024. II Timothy 2:3 (KJV): "Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ." Thank you Lord that we can go into battle with prayer, daily.

We are in perilous times because the church has forgotten the essence of this and other hymns. Accused of being “war-like” we stepped back from our calling to courageously confront evil in our world.
We must awake and move to do God’s will before it is too late to redeem our times for the days are full of evil.

The Lord gave me this hymn immediately after waking up a couple of days ago, so I know it is a song for NOW, especially as God’s true Church is under so much attack. In the U. K. , I am sure most will be aware of the likely schism occurring in the C. of E. over same sex relationship/“marriage” blessings. Please pray for us and other members of the body as we fight against the principals and powers of the enemy. I pray now may God’s will be be done in His Church and on earth, and may His Kingdom be made manifest, in Jesus’ mighty name.
