Lyrics from The Hymnal: By United Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A., 1919 (p. 758)
- 1. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
- He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
- He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
- Chorus
- His truth is marching on.
- (Refrain)
- Glory! glory! Hallelujah!
- Glory! glory! Hallelujah!
- Glory! glory! Hallelujah!
- His truth is marching on.
- 2. I have seen Him in the watch-fires 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:
- Chorus
- His day is marching on.
- 3. I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnished rows of steel:
- "As ye deal with My contemners, so with you My grace shall deal;
- Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with His heel,
- Chorus
- Since God is marching on."
- 4. He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat;
- He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment seat:
- O be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet!
- Chorus
- Our God is marching on.
- 5. 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[1] to make men free,
- Chorus
- While God is marching on.
