1 Our Captain leads us on,
He calls us from the skies;
He reaches out a starry crown,
And bids us take the prize.
2 "Be faithful unto death,
Partake my victory,
And thou shalt wear this glorious wreath,
And thou shalt reign with me."
3 'Tis thus the righteous Lord,
To every soldier saith:
Eternal life's the sure reward
Of all-victorious faith.
4 Who conquer in his might,
The victor's meed receive;
They claim a kingdom in his right,
Which God shall freely give.
