120. Marching Song

1 We are little soldiers marching,
In the service of our King;
Forth to battle we are pressing,
While our happy voices ring.

Chorus:
Forward, Soldiers!
In our Leader's name we go.
Forward, soldiers! Now advancing,
Let us triumph o'er the foe.

2 Bravely 'gainst the wrong we're fighting,
Christ, our Captain, leads the way.
Trusting him, we'll surely conquer,
Fierce and hot tho' be the fray. [Chorus]

3 Banners flying, voices shouting
Praises to our Saviour King.
On to vict'ry we are marching;
Hear the joyous watchword ring. [Chorus]
