Battle Hymn of The Republic
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;
His truth is marching on.

          Glory, glory, hallelujah!
          Glory, glory, hallelujah!
          Glory, glory, hallelujah!
          His truth is marching on. 

He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never sound 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!
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 live to make men free,
While God is marching on.

          Chorus

O join this mighty army there's a battle to be won;
Let us now put in the sickle for the harvest time has come;
Countless multitudes are waiting just to hear of God's own Son,
His army marches on!

          Chorus
