<p>There&#8217;s a royal banner given for display<br>
To the soldiers of the King;<br>
As an ensign fair we lift it up today,<br>
While as ransomed ones we sing.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">Marching on, marching on,<br>
For Christ count everything but loss!<br>
And to crown Him King, we&#8217;ll toil and sing,<br>
&#8217;Neath the banner of the cross!</p>
<p>Though the foe may rage and gather as the flood,<br>
Let the standard be displayed;<br>
And beneath its folds, as soldiers of the Lord,<br>
For the truth be not dismayed!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>Over land and sea, wherever man may dwell,<br>
Make the glorious tidings known;<br>
Of the crimson banner now the story tell,<br>
While the Lord shall claim His own!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>When the glory dawns&#8212;&#8217;tis drawing very near,<br>
It is hastening day by day&#8212;<br>
Then before our King the foe shall disappear,<br>
And the cross the world shall sway!</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
