90. Rally for the right

1 Now like a soldier brave, his native land to save,
With courage high and armor bright;
Just push with vigor on, and with determined might,
We'll rally for the right, boys, rally.

Refrain:
Let Truth e'er be your watchword, marching firmly on,
And ever walk in wisdom's ways;
The Father from above will watch in tend'rest love,
Then rally for the right, boys, rally.

2 Go forward to the fight, be strong for Truth and Right,
Tho' fiercely may the battle rage;
The vict'ry will be ours if all will now engage
To rally for the right, boys, rally. [Refrain]

4 Oh, let us conquer sin, and thus the battle win,
Win laurels for the victor's brow;
With Christ our Captain standing, standing firmly now,
We'll rally for the right, boys, rally. [Refrain]
