1 Hear the shout of triumph, hear the mighty song,
Filling earth and heaven as it rolls along;
Like the roar of waters breaking on the shore;
'Tis vict'ry to the Savior, now and ever more!
Chorus:
Hear ye this cry, (Hear the shout of triumph, as we pass along;)
Hear the (ringing) battle cry,
For the foe is (drawing) nigh,
'Tis the ever glorious triumph song; (the song of triumph,)
Hear ye this cry, (Hear the shout of triumph, as we pass along,)
Hear the music ringing;
All the world is singing
'Tis the song of triumph, the glorious victory.
2 Many were the battles, constant was the strife,
Fierce the raging conflict in their earthly life,
Yet they never falter'd, for the Lord was strong:
He was the Rock and Fortress, Victory and Song. [Chorus]
3 Onward, then forever, tho' our strength is small;
Jesus is our Leader, ev'ry foe must fall!
Then we'll join the ransom'd on the other shore;
Victory thro' the Savior, ringing ever more. [Chorus]
