There's a battle raging over the land an

There’s a battle raging over
the land and sea,
True to Christ our Captain we will be;
Satan’s hosts are mighty,
fighting for ruin and sin,
But in this great conflict
right is sure to win.

Over the top for Jesus
bravely we will go:
Over the top for Jesus,
routing ev’ry foe,
Never delaying when we hear
the bugle blow,
We’ll fight for right with all our might,
As over the top we go.

There’s a cry of sorrow rising
from hearts oppressed,
There’s a world
in sadness and unrest;
But the hope that thrills us,
looking out into the night,
Christ, the Lord of battles,
leads me in the fight.

Over the top for Jesus
bravely we will go:
Over the top for Jesus,
routing ev’ry foe,
Never delaying when we hear
the bugle blow,
We’ll fight for right with all our might,
As over the top we go.

When the pow’rs of earth
before our Redeemer shall kneel,
When the joy of triumph
we shall feel;
Then with Christ Who conquered,
into the realms of the blest,
We shall march
in vic’try to eternal rest.

Over the top for Jesus
bravely we will go:
Over the top for Jesus,
routing ev’ry foe,
Never delaying when we hear
the bugle blow,
We’ll fight for right with all our might,
As over the top we go.
