230. Army of Endeavor

1. Army of Endeavor, hear the trumpet call;
’Gainst the foe advancing, forward one and all!
Christ is our commander; faithful let us be:
He will give to us the victory!

Refrain
Though the battle rages, what have we to fear?
In the wildest conflict, He is ever near.
Trusting in our leader, faithful let us be:
He will give the victory!

2. In His royal service, there’s a work for all,
Cheering on the faint ones, lifting those that fall;
Unto Him who calls us ever faithful be:
He will give to us the victory! [Refrain]

3. Ever pressing onward in the cause of right,
Holding up the banner, walking in the light;
Keeping His commandments, great rewards have we!
He will give to us the victory! [Refrain]
