Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord:
G7 C G D
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
G B Em
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
Am G D G
His truth is marching on.
G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
C G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
G Em
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Am G D G
His truth is marching on.
G
I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps,
G7 C G D
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps;
G B Em
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps:
Am G D G
His day is marching on.
G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
C G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
G Em
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Am G D G
His day is marching on.
G
I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnished rows of steel:
G7 C G D
"As ye deal with my contemners, so with you my grace shall deal;
G B Em
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel,
Am G D G
Since God is marching on."
G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
C G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
G Em
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Am G D G
Since God is marching on.
G
He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat;
G7 C G D
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment-seat:
G B Em
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet!
Am G D G
Our God is marching on.
G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
C G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
G Em
Glory, glory, hallelujah!

Our God is marching on.
G
In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
G7 C G D
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me:
G B Em
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free,
Am G D G
While God is marching on.
G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
C G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
G Em
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Am G D G
While God is marching on.
G
He is coming like the glory of the morning on the wave,
G7 C G D
He is Wisdom to the mighty, He is Succour to the brave,
G B Em
So the world shall be His footstool, and the soul of Time His slave,
Am G D G
Our God is marching on.
G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
C G
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
G Em
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Am G D G
Our God is marching on.
