Hark! ’t is the warlike clarion

Hark! 't is the warlike clarion:On, to the battle, heroes, on!To arms! to arms! resounds on highThe voice of war and victory.

Haste to the battle! See! the LordWaves to the clouds his conquering sword.To arms! to arms! I hear the cry,On, on, to bloodless victory!

The fierce embattled hosts of hellBefore the dreadful onset fell.To arms! to arms! was once the cry,But now the trump sounds victory!

Lo! the white war-horse treads them down,I know the rider by his crown.All hail! all hail! his legions cry;Jesus, be thine the victory!
