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 banners go!
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus,
Going on before.
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!
Moves the Church of God:
Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod;
We are not divided,
All one Body we—
One in faith and Spirit,
One eternally.
Kingdoms rise and wane;
But the Church of Jesus
Constant will remain.
Gates of hell can never
’Gainst the Church prevail;
We have Christ’s own promise,
Which can never fail.
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.

The true Ekkelsia is indeed one body, one mind and one faith. God is uniting His body to be stronger than ever. In today's time we truly need to link spiritual arms and spread Yahweh's truth around the world. I so agree with the previous comments.

Blessed inspiring hymn of the cross. Oh what a joy to be a Christian solidier. I’ve listened to this song since I was a kid and it has remained alive until this generation and will continue to ring in the heart of every true Christian.

We are matching against principalities, powers and Spiritual wicked Authorities in High Places.
