11724. Marching On To Glory Day By Day

1 ’Neath the sacred Gospel banner with the Savior for our guide,
We are marching on to glory day by day;
Trusting in our holy leader thro’ whatever may betide,
We are marching on to glory day by day.

Refrain:
We are marching on to glory day by day,
We are marching on to glory day by day;
Gathering from every nation, ’neath the banner of salvation,
We are marching on to glory day by day.

2 Climbing rugged steeps before us, led in ways we do not know,
We are marching on to glory day by day;
Passing oft thro’ pleasant valleys where refreshing waters flow,
We are marching on to glory day by day. [Refrain]

3 Overcoming earth’s temptations, joys enduring to obtain,
We are marching on to glory day by day;
Seeking Heaven’s shining city, life eternal there to gain,
We are marching on to glory day by day. [Refrain]

4 To be ready for the banquet at the marriage of the Lamb,
We are marching on to glory day by day;
With the company of pure ones to unite in victory’s psalm,
We are marching on to glory day by day. [Refrain]
