Christ the royal Master Leads against the foe; Forward into battle, See, His banners go. Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before! 2 At the sign of triumph Satan's host doth flee; On, then, Christian soldiers, On to victory! Hell's foundations quiver At the shout of praise; Brothers, lift your voices, Loud your anthems raise! Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before! 3 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! 4 Crowns and thrones may perish, Kingdoms rise and wane, But the Church of Jesus Constant will remain; Gates of hell can never 'Gainst that Church prevail; We have Christ's own promise, And that cannot fail. Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before! 5 Onward, then, ye people! Join our happy throng! Blend with ours your voices In the triumph song! Glory, laud, and honor, Unto Christ the King; This through countless ages Men and angels sing. Onward, Christian soldiers, Marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus Going on before! Amen.

For You have won the battle That they might wear the crown; And now they shine in glory Reflected from Your throne. 2 Insert the stanza appropriate to the day. 3 Then let us praise the Father And worship God the Son And sing to God the Spirit, Eternal Three in One, Till all the ransomed number Fall down before the throne, Ascribing pow'r and glory And praise to God alone. Saints and Martyrs (general): 4 Apostles, prophets, martyrs, And all the noble throng Who wear the spotless raiment And raise the ceaseless song -- For these, passed on before us, We offer praises due And, walking in their footsteps, Would live our lives for You. St. Andrew, Apostle: 5 All praise, O Lord, for Andrew, The first to welcome You, Whose witness to his brother Named You Messiah true. May we, with hearts kept open to You throughout the year, Confess to friend and neighbor Your advent ever near. St. Thomas, Apostle: 6 All praise, O Lord, for Thomas, Whose short-lived doubtings prove Your perfect twofold nature, The fullness of Your love. To all who live with questions A steadfast faith afford; And grant us grace to know You, True man, yet God and Lord. St. Stephen, Martyr: 7 Praise for the first of martyrs Who saw You ready stand To help in time of torment, To plead at God's right hand. Like You, our suff'ring Savior, His enemies he blessed, With "Lord, receive my spirit," His faith, by death, confessed. St. John, Apostle and Evangelist: 8 For Your belov'd disciple Exiled to Patmos' shore, And for his faithful record, We praise You evermore. Praise for the mystic vision Through him to us revealed; May we, in patience waiting, With Your elect be sealed. Holy Innocents, Martyrs: 9 All praise for infant martyrs, Whom Your mysterious love Called early from their warfare To share Your home above. O Rachel, cease your weeping; Thy rest from earthly cares! Lord, grant us crowns as brilliant And faith as sure as theirs. The Confession of St. Peter: 10 Praise for Your great apostle So eager and so bold, Thrice falling, yet repentant, Thrice charged to feed Your fold.

St. Matthias, Apostle: 13 For one in place of Judas, Th' apostles sought God's choice; The lot fell to Matthias For whom we now rejoice. may we like true apostles Your holy Church defend, And not betray our calling But serve You to the end.
