Representative Text

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]

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
