42. Victory By and By

1 We are marching onward in the cause of right,
Bravely on to meet the foe,
We are sure to conquer in Immanuel’s might,
And the hosts of sin o’erthrow.

Refrain:
Then away, march away
‘Neath the glorious banner of our King,
In the home of rest that awaits the blest
By and by the vict’ry we shall sing.

2 In the Sunday school we mass our forces brave,
Whence the gospel trumpet’s sound
That shall tell the nations of His pow’r to save,
Shall be heard the world around. [Refrain]

3 Oh, the wrong we’ll vanquish, and the right shall win,
Ere the fleeting days are past,
And with Him who e’er a conqueror has been,
We shall overcome at last. [Refrain]
