Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord,
|
He goes trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored,
|
He hath loosed the fateful lightnings of His terrible swift sword,
|
His truth is marching on!
|
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, 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!
|
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
His truth is marching on!
|
|
I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnished rows of steel,
|
"As you deal with my contemners, so with you my grace shall deal,"
|
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with His heel,
|
Since God is marching on!
|
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
His truth is marching on!

|
He has sounded out the trumpet that shall never call retreat,
|
He has waked the Earth's dull sorrow with a high ecstatic beat,
|
O, be swift, my soul, to answer Him, be jubilant, my feet!
|
Our God is marching on!
|
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Our God is marching on!
|
|
In the whiteness of the lilies He was born across the sea,
|
With a glory in His bosom that shines out on you and me,
|
As Christ died to make men holy, let us die to make men free,
|
While God is marching on!
|
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Our God is marching on!
|
|
He is coming like the glory of the morning on the wave,
|
He is wisdom to the mighty, He is succour to the brave,
|
So the w'rld shall be His footstool, and the soul of time His slave,
|
Our God is marching on!
|
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
|
Our God is marching on!
