Ho, my comrades! see the signal Waving in the sky! Reinforcements now appearing, Victory is nigh.

See the mighty host advancing, Satan leading on: Mighty men around us falling, Courage almost gone!

Fierce and long the battle rages, But our help is near: Onward comes our great Commander, Cheer, my comrades, cheer!
