|
<p>Lead on, O King eternal,<br>
|
|
The day of march has come;<br>
|
|
Henceforth in fields of conquest<br>
|
|
Thy tents shall be our home.<br>
|
|
Through days of preparation<br>
|
|
Thy grace has made us strong;<br>
|
|
And now, O King eternal,<br>
|
|
We lift our battle song.</p>
|
|
<p>Lead on, O King eternal,<br>
|
|
Till sin’s fierce war shall cease,<br>
|
|
And holiness shall whisper<br>
|
|
The sweet amen of peace.<br>
|
|
For not with swords’ loud clashing,<br>
|
|
Nor roll of stirring drums;<br>
|
|
With deeds of love and mercy<br>
|
|
The heavenly kingdom comes.</p>
|
|
<p>Lead on, O King eternal,<br>
|
|
We follow, not with fears,<br>
|
|
For gladness breaks like morning<br>
|
|
Where’er Thy face appears.<br>
|
|
Thy cross is lifted over us,<br>
|
|
We journey in its light;<br>
|
|
The crown awaits the conquest;<br>
|
|
Lead on, O God of might.</p>
