Lead Us Onward

1 Lead us onward, ever onward, in the path Thy steps have trod
Lead us onward, ever onward, to the glorious heights of God.
Then rejoicing, then rejoicing, where the crimson banners fling,
We will onward press, the name confess of Christ our King.

Chorus:
Lead us onward to Thy land of light,
Lead us onward, lead us onward,
Lead us onward by Thy hand of might,
We will follow day by day,
Lead us onward tho’ the day be long,
Lead us onward, lead us onward,
For Thy love shall be our strength and song,
Lead us onward all the way!

2 Lead us onward, ever onward, in Thy strength we’ll conq’ring go,
Lead us onward, ever onward, and a crown of life bestow.
List the watchword, list the watchword, which resounds ‘neath sunlit sky,
He is ever near, our hearts to cheer, the King most high. [Chorus]

3 Lead us onward, ever onward, till our warfare all is past,
Lead us onward, ever onward, to the heav’nly home at last.
Then forever, then forever, we Thy wondrous praise shall sing,
And in mansions blest we e’er shall rest, with Christ our King. [Chorus]
