Text: | Hold the Fort |
Author: | P. P. Bliss |
Tune: | [Ho! my comrades, see the signal] |
1 Ho! my comrades, see the signal
Waving in the sky!
Reinforcements now appearing,
Victory is nigh!
Refrain:
"Hold the fort, for I am coming,"
Jesus signals still;
Wave the answer back to heaven,—
"By thy grace we will!"
2 See the mighty host advancing,
Satan leading on;
Mighty men around us falling,
Courage almost gone. [Refrain]
3 See the glorious banner waving,
Hear the bugle blow!
In our Leader's name we'll triumph
Over every foe. [Refrain]
4 Fierce and long the battle rages,
But our Help is near;
Onward comes our Great Commander,
Cheer, my comrades, cheer! [Refrain]
