Onward Christian soldiers marching as to war,
with the cross of Jesus going on before.
Christ the royal master leads against the foe,
forward into battle see His banner go.
Onward Christian soldiers marching as to war,
with the cross of Jesus going on before.

Like a mighty army moves the church of God,
brothers we are treading where the saints have trod.
We are not divided all one body we,
one in hope and doctrine one in charity.
Onward Christian soldiers marching as to war,
with the cross of Jesus going on before.

(Tune: Maryland, my Maryland)

Sing ye praises loud and long
and let the unenlightened know,
in every echo of your song
the great deeds done, tho' long ago.
By Columbus of the valiant soul
who first old Neptune has controlled
despite of envy, intrigue, gold
in the dim past of long ago.

With vessels three, o'er stormy sea
he thrilled the world of long ago,
while wisdom linked with destiny
in justice scales its weight did throw.
We are his heirs we wear his name
we boast his deeds we spread his flame,
our Order his the shining flame
that lights the gloom of long ago.
