Sunday School Volunteer Song

We are march­ing on with shield and ban­ner bright

We will work for God and bat­tle for the right

We will praise His name

re­joic­ing in His might

And we’ll work till Je­sus calls.

In the Sun­day School our ar­my we pre­pare

As we ral­ly round our bless­èd stand­ard there

And the Sav­ior’s cross we ear­ly learn to bear

While we work till Je­sus comes.

Then awake

then awake

hap­py song

hap­py song

Shout for joy

shout for joy

as we glad­ly march along.

We are march­ing on­ward

sing­ing as we go

To the pro­mised land where liv­ing wa­ters flow;

Come and join our ranks as pil­grims here be­low

Come and work till Je­sus calls.

We are march­ing on

our cap­tain

ev­er near

Will pro­tect us still

His gen­tle voice we hear:

Let the foe ad­vance

we’ll nev­er

nev­er fear

For we’ll work till Je­sus calls.

Then awake

awake

our hap­py

hap­py song

We will shout for joy

and glad­ly march along;

In the Lord of Hosts let ev­ery heart be strong

While we work till Je­sus comes.
