Author: Priscilla J. Owens Hymnal: Songs for Work and Worship #133 (1900) First Line: Marching on against the foe Lyrics: 1 Marching on against the foe—
Jesus leads;
Lay the haughty fortress low,
Jesus leads.
Guided on by his command
Show your love by grateful deeds,
Claim his right to ev’ry land,
Jesus leads.
Chorus:
Jesus leads,
Jesus leads!
Make his wondrous power known,
Jesus leads!
2 Right against sin’s frowning wall,
Jesus leads;
You must follow at his call,
Jesus leads.
Lay the shrine of Mammon low,
By his might the truth succeeds,
He will vanquish ev’ry foe,
Jesus leads. [Chorus]
3 You must face an angry world,
Jesus leads;
Fiery darts against you hurled,
Jesus leads.
You will conquer in his name,
hark! his message onward speeds,
And your joyful shouts proclaim,
Jesus leads. [Chorus]
