Intro verse 1 Sound the battle cry! See, the foe is nigh; Raise the standard high for the Lord; Gird your armor on, Stand firm everyone; Rest your cause upon His holy Word. Chorus Rouse, then, soldiers, rally round the banner, Ready, steady, pass the word a-long; Onward, forward, shout a loud ho-sanna! Christ is Captain of the mighty throng. verse 2 Strong to meet the foe, Marching on we go, While our cause we know must prevail; Shield and banner bright, Gleaming in the light; Battling for the right we ne'er can fail. Chorus Rouse, then, soldiers, rally round the banner, Ready, steady, pass the word a-long; Onward, forward, shout a loud ho-sanna! Christ is Captain of the mighty throng. verse 3 O Thou God of all, Hear us when we call, Help us one and all by Thy grace; When the battle's done, And the vict'ry's won, May we wear the crown before Thy face. Chorus Rouse, then, soldiers, rally round the banner, Ready, steady, pass the word a-long; Onward, forward, shout a loud ho-sanna! Christ is Captain of the mighty throng.
