Lead On, O King Eternal | Christian Song Lyrics | Yeshu Geets

 Verse 1

Lead on, O King eternal,

The day of march has come;

Henceforth in fields of conquest

Thy tents shall be our home.

Through days of preparation

Thy grace has made us strong;

And now, O King eternal,

We lift our battle song.

Verse 2

Lead on, O King eternal,

Till sin's fierce war shall cease,

And holiness shall whisper

The sweet amen of peace.

For not with swords' loud clashing,

Nor roll of stirring drums;

But deeds of love and mercy

The heavenly kingdom comes.

Verse 3

Lead on, O King eternal,

We follow, not with fears,

For gladness breaks like morning

Where'er Thy face appears.

Thy cross is lifted over us,

We journey in its light;

The crown awaits the conquest;

Lead on, O God of might.
