His Worthy Praise ‎#46

46. Stepping Out

1 Pressing on to battle, with our banners all unfurled;
Marching on with Jesus, who by love redeems the world;
Strong in faith and courage true, and eager for the fight,
Stepping out to glory in the gospel light.

Refrain:
Stepping out, stepping out under the standard royal;
Stepping out, stepping out unto our Captain loyal;
Pressing on with a song, making the valleys ring,
Forward to the conflict with our eternal King.

2 Stepping out, undaunted by the fury of the foe,
Sure that he who leads us, will his matchless power show;
Spreading light around us, giving cheer and peace and love,
Hoping to receive the crown of life above. [Refrain]

3 Stepping out, obeying all the orders as they come,
Daily getting nearer to the gates of home, sweet home;
Christ will keep us faithful till we meet him face to face
In that homeland of the souls redeemed by grace. [Refrain]
