Lyrics:

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps;
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps;
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps,
His day is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me;
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free!
While God is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

My God, I’m overwhelmed by this rendition.

[jessicaclapp]

Amen to the ones who still stand for the Freedom of Jesus Christ, and fight for the loved ones and became men of the navy and thanks to all the men and women who still fight today thank you all

[bobbievasco]

My dad spent 4 years in the south pacific fighting for freedom in ww2 we were lucky he came home to America the best country in the world 🌎 believe me we sing this song in church. Love you dad and thanks

[davideades]

God bless America our faithful friends of England.

[thomasdennis]

This was first performed with Abraham Lincoln in attendance.. afterwards he stood up and shouted " sing it again ! Sing it again " !!!

[cherylgagon]

I needed to listen to this today. It is my hope and prayer that Americans will come together in an effort to remember and appreciate the many sacrifices given by so many in our countries history. God Bless America.

[pietroplastina]

I AM CANADIAN AND PROUD TO SEE THE CANADIAN FLAG FLY ALONG SIDE WITH THE AMERICAN FLAG ACROSS OUR CITY OF TORONTO CANADA. GOD BLESS BOTH COUNTRIES INFINITELY!

[sarastillwater]

This gives me goosebumps. Our country needs this more today than ever before.

[julieames]

My dad and brother were Army Vets. They would be impressed with this. Perhaps they are listening to this in heaven! 🇺🇲🇺🇸🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️💪💪

[dchong]

I migrated from an Asian country to Canada and here I learned the value of freedom but even in Canada many freedoms aren't guaranteed. This is what makes USA the greatest country in the world and like no other - it constitutionally guarantees freedom. A true symbol of freedom!

[williamdarling]

We pray that our nation with God’s help, will survive the current socialism drive.
I always love hear this psalm and America! May we go on and on as the guiding light batop the hill!

[peterrea]

I wish we had just a fraction of the patriotism in the U.K. that America has in abundance! God bless the United States of America!

[RJExplorerChannel]

This song needs to be played today in the wake of the Corona Virus. We must come together in these dark hours to defeat this microscopic enemy or any enemy that wishes us harm. It will remind people that united we can withstand anything with His guidance. May God bless and keep this country united and strong.

[betsy]

Our youth should be listening to this. They need to hear the music that was for our country and for the men who fought to make us free.

[billhuber]

God bless this country now and forever .

[tralalalala]

Play it on your devices. Sing it in your head. Sing it in the car doing your work. Sing it out loud. Sing it play it constantly. Call it forth. Thank you Jesus. Great is our God.🇺🇸

[wildrootvnam]

There is simply nothing in this world that has the angelic sounds of Americas military bands! You all are a blessing to our country.
