Press the Battle On (#130) | Charles W. Naylor, 1900

Forward, forward, is the battle cry, Onward, onward, to our home on high; We will conquer for the Lord or die, The foe’s retreating, press the battle on. Refrain: Strengthened by the mighty pow’r of heaven, We shall conquer, we shall conquer; Till the raging foe afar is driven, Press the battle on. Forward, forward, never faint or fear, Christ, our Captain, is forever near; Be courageous, full of hope and cheer, With full assurance press the battle on. Forward, forward, put the foe to flight, We are battling for the truth and right; We shall triumph in Jehovah’s might, Then do not falter, press the battle on. Forward, forward, there’s a crown before, See it shining on that heav’nly shore? We shall wear it when the conflict’s o’er, The prize is waiting, press the battle on.
