The Young People's Army

Author: Charlotte G. Homer Hymnal: Revival Praises #162 (1907) First Line: March along together firm and true Refrain First Line: March along together firm and true Lyrics: 1 March along together firm and true, For lo, the world is ever watching you; Be brave and bold upon the battlefield, Determined that the foe shall yield. Long and loud the bugle calling is sounding! Sin and wrong are ev'rywhere abounding, "Forward!" all along the line resounding, Bids us march away. Chorus: March along together firm and true, For lo, the world is ever watching you; Be brave and bold upon the battlefield, Determined that the foe shall yield. 2 On we go with armor shining bright, With sword in hand to battle for the right; United in the service of the Lord, We're marching at our Captain's word. Valiant soldiers of the Lord are leading, Earnestly for help the church is pleading, Slowly backward see the foe receding, Forward march today. [Chorus] 3 True as steel, and loyal to our King, We'll fight until the shouts of vict'ry ring From north to south, from east and from the west, Till Christ is ev'rywhere confessed Storm the forts of sin and desolation; Soldiers brave, renew your obligation, And with earn'est pray'r and supplication, Forward march today. [Chorus] Tune Title: [March along together firm and true]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Person Name: Charlotte G. Homer Author of "The Sunday School Army" in Sunshine Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday­-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman

Carrie B. Adams

1859 - 1940 Person Name: Mrs. Carrie B. Adams Composer of "[March along together, firm and true]" in Assembly Songs Adams, Carrie Belle (Wilson). (Oxford, Ohio, July 28, 1859-1940). Father, David Wilson, song writer, teacher of music. Married, 1880 to Allyn G. Adams, moved to Terre Haute, Indiana. Director and organist, First Congregational Church; Central Christian Church. Teacher (1887-1895), Indiana State Normal School. Wrote many anthems and cantatas, secular and religious, many published by Lorenz. --Keith C. Clark, DNAH Archives =================== Mrs. Carrie B. (Wilson) Adams was born in Oxford, Ohio, July 28, 1859. Her father, Mr. David Wilson, was author of a number of songs and books, also a singing teacher of note in his day, and her mother was quite musically inclined. Her experience with her father in elementary and advanced class work, in children's and harmony classes, her years of musical participation in solo work and in accompanying, in the organization and leadership, not only of choirs, but also of great choral organizations, her close touch with singers of elementary grade, as well as those of great skill and reputation, have given her a breadth of musical thought and practical power of adaptation that constantly enrich her work of composition. Miss Carrie B. Wilson became Mrs. Allyn G. Adams in 1880, and soon after located in Terre Haute, Ind., where her husband was a leading bass singer and interested in large commercial enterprises. Mrs. Adams soon became a leading figure in the musical life of that enterprising city, and has been actively identified with the Choral Club, Treble Clef Club, Rose Polytechnic Glee Club, First Congregational Church and Central Christian Church choirs, as director, chorister and organist. From 1887 to 1895 she occupied the chair of music in the Indiana State Normal School. Her first anthem was published in 1876. Among her best known publications are four anthem books — "Anthem Annual, Nos. 1 and 2," and " Royal Anthems, Nos. 1 and 2" ; "Music for Common Schools"; two sacred cantatas, "Redeemer and King " and "Easter Praise" ; an operetta for church and school use, "The National Flower"; a group of Shakespeare songs from "As You Like it," and a large number of anthems, male choruses, ladies' quartets and miscellaneous pieces in octavo form. http://archive.org/stream/biographyofgospe00hall/biographyofgospe00hall_djvu.txt
