The war is on, the battle cry
is ringing out:
"To arms, to arms!"
King Jesus leads the way;
The Armageddon forces
of the Lord of Hosts
Are mobilizing for the mighty fray.
The Armageddon hosts are gath'ring,
The battleline is drawn today;
We'll ne'er surrender, for our Defender,
The Prince of Peace, will lead the way
The Mighty God will be our Fortress,
The gates of hell shall not prevail;
In battle glorious with King victorious,
We'll never, never, never fail,
In battle glorious, with God victorious,
We cannot fail, We cannot fail.
Ten thousand times
ten thousand thousand soldiers come,
From ev'ry kindred,
tribe and tongue and race:
Celestial hosts shall join us
in the glad acclaim,
And on His brow
the crown of glory place.
The Armageddon hosts are gath'ring,
The battleline is drawn today;
We'll ne'er surrender, for our Defender,
The Prince of Peace, will lead the way
The Mighty God will be our Fortress,
The gates of hell shall not prevail;
In battle glorious with King victorious,
We'll never, never, never fail,
In battle glorious, with God victorious,
We cannot fail, We cannot fail.
The kingdoms of this
sin-cursed world shall now become
The Kingdom of our
Lord and Savior King;
The Prince of Peace
in royal proclamation comes,
And heav'n and earth
in mighty paeons ring.
The Armageddon hosts are gath'ring,
The battleline is drawn today;
We'll ne'er surrender, for our Defender,
The Prince of Peace, will lead the way
The Mighty God will be our Fortress,
The gates of hell shall not prevail;
In battle glorious with King victorious,
We'll never, never, never fail,
In battle glorious, with God victorious,
We cannot fail, We cannot fail.
Two worlds await the issue
of this mighty war,
And soldiers of the
King of kings are we:
We'll plant the cross
on ev'ry fort in ev'ry land,
And all the earth to Jesus bow the knee.
The Armageddon hosts are gath'ring,
The battleline is drawn today;
We'll ne'er surrender, for our Defender,
The Prince of Peace, will lead the way
The Mighty God will be our Fortress,
The gates of hell shall not prevail;
In battle glorious with King victorious,
We'll never, never, never fail,
In battle glorious, with God victorious,
We cannot fail, We cannot fail.
