"Te Deum Laudamus"
PRAYER FOR H.M. THE KING.
BLESSING by Monseigneur the Bishop of Bruges.
The Bishop and the Doyen will conduct His Majesty to the West Door.
Onward Christian Soldiers
Marching as to War
With the Cross of Jesus
Going on before.
Christ the Royal Master
Leads against the foe
Forward into battle,
See His Banners go
Onward Christian Soldiers
Marching as to War
With the Cross of Jesus
Going on before.
Like a mighty army,
Moves the Church of God:
Brothers, we are treading
Where the Saints have trod.
We are not divided,
All one body we,
One in hope, in doctrine,
One in charity.
Onward, &c.
Crowns and thrones may perish,
Kingdoms rise and wane,
But the Church of Jesus
Constant will remain;
Gates of hell can never
'Gainst that Church prevail;
We have Christ's own promise,
And that cannot fail.
Onward, &c.
Onward, then, ye faithful,
Join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices,
In the triumph-song
Glory, laud, and honour
Unto Christ the King:
This, through countless ages,
Men and Angels sing.
Onward, &c.
