Like a mighty army, moves the church of God. Brothers we are treading where the  
saints have trod. We are not divided, all one body we. One in hope and doctrine,  
one in charity.

Onward then ye people join our happy song. Blend with ours your voices in the  
triumph song. Glory, laud, and honor unto Christ the King. This through countless  
ages men and angels sing.
