Lead On O King Eternal Lyrics

Lead on, O King eternal,
the day of march has come;
henceforth in fields of conquest
Your tents shall be our home.
Through days of preparation
Your grace has made us strong;
and now, O King eternal,
we lift our battle song.

Lead on, O King eternal,
till sin's fierce war shall cease,
and holiness shall whisper
the sweet amen of peace.
For not with swords loud clashing, nor roll of stirring drums;
with deeds of love and mercy
the heavenly kingdom comes.

Lead on, O King eternal,
we follow, without fear,
for gladness breaks like morning
where'er your face appears.
The cross is lifted over us,
we journey in its light;
the crown awaits the conquest;
lead on, O God of might.
