Soldiers of God
Author: Effie S. Black Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #116 (1916) First Line: O soldiers of the living God Refrain First Line: Of "victory! victory!" Lyrics: 1 O soldiers of the living God,
Press on, is vic'tries win!
Tho' principalities and pow'rs
You fight without, within.
A blood-stained banner goes before,
Once borne by martyred throng;
And, while a cross of shame they bore,
Their lips proclaimed the song.
Chorus:
Of "victory! victory!"
(Of "victory! victory!")
Loud let the echoes ring;
Victory!(Victory!) victory
Thro' Jesus, Immaneul.
2 O soldiers of the living God,
Pray on! prayer is the pow'r
That nerves the heart with bravery
In each unguarded hour.
When Satan and his mighty host
Their toils around you fling,
Mount on the wings of faith and prayer,
Triumphantly to sing [Chorus]
3 O soldiers of the living God,
Fight on, nor fear the foe;
Led by a mighty Conqueror,
Defeat you cannot know.
Go forth His power to proclaim,
To battle for your King;
And, as you conquer in His name,
The song of triumph sing, [Chorus]

Chas. H. Gabriel
1856 - 1932 Composer of "[O soldiers of the living God]" in The New Praiseworthy 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.
