1. Onward, Christian, onward go; Fight the fight, maintain the strife,
Oft In Sorrow, Oft In Woe
Oft in sorrow, oft in woe,
Onward, Christian, onward go;
Fight the fight, maintain the strife,
Strengthened with the bread of life.
Join the war, and face the foe.
Will you flee in danger’s hour?
Know you not your Captain’s pow’r?

Words by White-Maitland / Music by W. T. Porter

2. Let your drooping heart be glad; March in heav’nly armor clad;
Oft In Sorrow, Oft In Woe
Let your drooping heart be glad;
March in heav’nly armor clad;
Fight, nor think the battle long:
Soon shall vict’ry tune your song.
Let not sorrow dim your eye:
Soon shall ev‘ry tear be dry;
Let not fears your course impede:
Great your strength, if great your need.
