Sound the Battlecry

Sound the Battlecry - The Jamborees

Sound the battle cry See the foe is nigh;

Raise the standard high for the Lord;

Gird your armor on stand firm every one;

Rest your cause upon His holy Word

Rouse then soldiers

Rally round the banner

Ready steady pass the word along;

Onward forward shout aloud

Hosanna

Christ is Captain of the mighty throng

Strong to meet the foe

Marching on we go

While our cause we know must prevail;

Shield and banner bright

Gleaming in the light

Battling for the right we never can fail

Rouse then soldiers

Rally round the banner

Ready steady pass the word along;

Onward forward shout aloud

Hosanna

Christ is Captain of the mighty throng

O Thou God of all hear us when we call

Help us one and all by Thy grace;

When the battle's done

And the vict'ry's won

May we wear the crown before Thy face

Rouse then soldiers

Rally round the banner

Ready steady pass the word along;

Onward forward shout aloud

Hosanna

Christ is Captain of the mighty throng

Sound the battle cry

See the foe is nigh;

Raise the standard high for the Lord;

Gird your armor on

Stand firm every one;

Rest your cause upon His holy Word
