Onward Christian Soldier

612 – Onward, Christian Soldiers!

Major Key: D

1.
Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus Going on before.
Christ, the royal Master, Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle see His banners go!

CHORUS:
Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus Going on before.

2.
Like a mighty army Moves the church of God;
Brothers, we are treading Where the saints have trod.
We are not divided, All one body we,
One in hope and doctrine, One in charity.

3.
Crowns and thrones may perish, Kingdoms rise and wane,
But the church of Jesus Constant will remain.
Gates of hell can never ‘Gainst that church prevail;
We have Christ’s own promise, That can never fail.

4.
Onward then, ye people, Join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices In the triumph song.
Glory, laud, and honor Unto Christ the King,
This through countless ages Men and angels sing.

Twendeni askari, Watu wa Mungu;
Yesu yuko mbele, Tumwandame juu;
Ametangulia Bwana vitani,
Twende mbele kwani ndiye amini.

Chorus
Twendeni Askari, Watu wa Mungu;
Yesu yuko mbele, Tumwandame juu;

Jeshi la shetani, likisikia
Jina la Mwokozi, litakimbia;
Kelele za shangwe zivume pote;
Ndugu, inueni zenu sauti.

3
Kweli kundi dogo, watu wa Mungu,
La mababa yetu ni letu fungu;
Hatutengwi nao, moja imani;
Tumaini moja, na moja dini.

4
Haya mbele watu nasi njiani,
Inueni myoyo, nanyi sifuni;
Heshima na sifa yake Mfalme;
Juu hata chini sana zivume
