Onward Christian artists, marching as to war,
For our gifts and talents won't stay in a drawer.
Armed we are for battle, come we bringing near:
Sights and sounds of Gospel truths that you may see and hear.
Marching past rejection, learning not to compromise,
Learning not to listen to the devil's lies.
On we press for freedom, singing a new song.
And we make it loud and clear, that you might sing along.
Standing firm against the flood which does our hearts assail,
Flags of revelation we will dare unveil.
For we love our Savior, He is our whole delight,
For this faith we will contend, and for it we will fight.
Onward Christian artists, marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus going on before!
