Verse 1
O church of God triumphant O'er human doubts and fears,
Which in the faith of ages Comes marching thro' the years;
Baptized with blood of martyrs, With conflicts dearly won,
Beset with persecutions, Yet ever marching on.
Which in the faith of ages Comes marching thro' the years;
Baptized with blood of martyrs, With conflicts dearly won,
Beset with persecutions, Yet ever marching on.
Verse 2
With backward look we see thee, Thy scattered members few;
We see thee struggling ever Their courage to renew;
Strong a mid tribulation, Uprising from each fall,
We see thee marching onward Tri umphant over all.
We see thee struggling ever Their courage to renew;
Strong a mid tribulation, Uprising from each fall,
We see thee marching onward Tri umphant over all.
Verse 3
O refuge of the nations, On thee our hope is stayed;
Thy courage thro' the ages Shall keep us unafraid,
And with thy strength increasing Till earthly years are past,
God help thee to march onward Triumphant to the last.
Thy courage thro' the ages Shall keep us unafraid,
And with thy strength increasing Till earthly years are past,
God help thee to march onward Triumphant to the last.
Refrain
O church of God triumphant, with conflicts dearly won,
Beset with persecution, Yet ever marching on.
Beset with persecution, Yet ever marching on.
