Victory! Victory!

Author: Dr. J. C. Curran Hymnal: The Helper in Sacred Song #141 (1889) First Line: Pass along the war-cry, soldiers of the Lord Lyrics: 1 Pass along the war-cry, soldiers of the Lord; Gird anew your armor, draw the trusty sword, March in serried column, shouting as you go, Victory! victory! over ev’ry foe. Refrain: pass along the war-cry, Victory! victory! Pass along the war-cry, Victory! victory! Pass along the war-cry, Shout it as you go. Victory! victory! over ev’ry foe. 2 Fierce the battle rages, deadly is the strife; But the prize awaits you, “everlasting life.” Jesus, your Commander, gives you as you go, Victory! victory! over ev’ry foe. [Refrain] 3 Satan’s hosts are flying, put to utter rout; Hark! our valiant soldiers raise their battle shout. Heaven with the echo cheerfully resounds, Victory! victory! over ev’ry foe. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Pass along the war-cry, soldiers of the Lord]
