|
<p>Cross of Christ! lead onward,<br>
|
|
Through the holy war;<br>
|
|
In this sign we conquer,<br>
|
|
Now and evermore.<br>
|
|
Not of man the power,<br>
|
|
Not to man the fame;<br>
|
|
We are victors only<br>
|
|
In our Leader’s Name.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>

|
<p class="refrain">Cross of Christ! lead onward,<br>
|
|
Through the holy war;<br>
|
|
In this sign we conquer<br>
|
|
Now and evermore.</p>
|
|
<p>Not with pomp and pageant,<br>
|
|
Not in earthly pride;<br>
|
|
We must fight our battles<br>
|
|
Like the Crucified.<br>
|
|
Overcome by suff’ring,<br>
|
|
Conquer through defeat;<br>
|
|
Tried and tested daily<br>
|
|
In the furnace heat.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Panoplied in graces,<br>
|
|
Bold, yet humbly meek;<br>
|
|
Resting while we’re working<br>
|
|
Strong, but ever weak.<br>
|
|
Timid, though courageous,<br>
|
|
Gaining as we give;<br>
|
|
Crucified with Jesus,<br>
|
|
Yet, in Him, we live.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>By a cloud encompassed,<br>
|
|
Witnesses above;<br>
|
|
Saints, apostles, prophets,<br>
|
|
Precious ones we love;<br>
|
|
While “advance” is sounding,<br>
|
|
Mounts the battle thrill.<br>
|
|
Cross of Christ! lead onward<br>
|
|
Where the Captain will.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Marching in the pathway<br>
|
|
That the Master trod,<br>
|
|
Walks One daily with us<br>
|
|
Like the Son of God.<br>
|
|
To the end enduring,<br>
|
|
Armor ne’er laid down<br>
|
|
Till the cross leads upward<br>
|
|
To the blood bought crown.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
