We are soldiers in the army, We have heard the Captain’s call

1 We are soldiers in the army,
We have heard the Captain’s call;
He has given us a banner,
Which no evil can befall,—
While the host is marching on.

Refrain:
Let us come around the banner,
The banner of the cross, that will never suffer loss;
There is victory and glory
With the banner of the cross.

2 There’s a stir among the people
When the banner is display’d;
All the friends of truth are joyful,
All its enemies dismayed,—
While the host is marching on.

3 So we rally round the banner,
And our ranks will still increase,
For to ev’ry soul it carries
Life and love and joy and peace, —
While the host is marching on.

      1 We are soldiers in the army,
      We have heard the Captain’s call;
      He has given us a banner,
      Which no evil can befall,—
      While the host is marching on.

      Refrain:
      Let us come around the banner,
      The banner of the cross, that will never suffer loss;
      There is victory and glory
      With the banner of the cross.

      2 There’s a stir among the people
      When the banner is display’d;
      All the friends of truth are joyful,
      All its enemies dismayed,—
      While the host is marching on.

      3 So we rally round the banner,
      And our ranks will still increase,
      For to ev’ry soul it carries
      Life and love and joy and peace, —
      While the host is marching on.
