Battle Hymn of the Republic Words by Julia Ward Howe Music: American Folk Song, 19th Century Words and Music public domain 645
Mine eyes have seen the gloryof the coming of the LordHe is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored
He hath loosed the fateful lightningof His terrible swift swordHis truth is marching on
Glory! glory, hallelujahGlory! glory, hallelujahGlory! glory, hallelujahOur God is marching on
I have seen Him in the watchfiresof a hundred circling campsThey have builded Him an altarin the evening dews and damps
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lampsHis day is marching on
Glory! glory, hallelujahGlory! glory, hallelujahGlory! glory, hallelujahOur God is marching on
He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never sound retreatHe is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment seat
O be swift, my soul, to answer Him; be jubilant, my feetOur God is marching on
Glory! glory, hallelujahGlory! glory, hallelujahGlory! glory, hallelujahOur God is marching on
In the beauty of the liliesChrist was born across the seaWith a glory in His bosomthat transfigures you and me
As He died to make men holylet us live to make men freeWhile God is marching on
Glory! glory, hallelujahGlory! glory, hallelujahGlory! glory, hallelujahOur God is marching on
He is coming like the gloryof the morning on the waveHe is wisdom to the mightyHe is honor to the brave
So the world shall be His footstool and the soul of wrong His slaveOur God is marching on
Glory! glory, hallelujahGlory! glory, hallelujahGlory! glory, hallelujahOur God is marching on
