1. Lo! the day of God is breaking;
See the gleaming from afar!
Sons of earth from slumber waking,
Hail the bright and morning star.
Refrain
Hear the call! O gird your armor on,
Grasp the Spirit’s mighty sword:
Take the helmet of salvation,
Pressing on to battle for the Lord!
2. Trust in Him who is your captain;
Let no heart in terror quail;
Jesus leads the gath’ring legions,
In His name we shall prevail. [Refrain]
3. Onward marching, firm and steady,
Faint not, fear not Satan’s frown,
For the Lord is with you always,
Till you wear the victor’s crown. [Refrain]
4. Conquering hosts with banners waving,
Sweeping on o’er hill and plain,
Ne’er shall halt till swells the anthem,
Christ o’er all the world doth reign! [Refrain]
