THE BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC |
|
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord; |
|
|
He is trampling out the vintage where grapes of wrath are stored; |
|
|
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword, |
|
|
His truth is marching on.--CHORUS
|
|
|
CHORUS:Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah! |
|
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah! His truth is marching on. |
|
|
I have seen Him in the watchfires of a hundred circling camps; |
|
|
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps; |
|
|
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps, |
|
|
His day is marching on.--CHORUS |
|
|
He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat; |
|
|
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His Judgement Seat. |
|
|
Oh! Be swift, my soul, to answer Him, be jubilant, my feet! |
|
|
Our God is marching on.--CHORUS |
|
|
In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea, |
|
|
With a glory in his bosom that transfigures you and me; |
|
|
As he died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, |
|
|
While God is marching on.--CHORUS |
|
