THE FIGHT IS ON

Words and Music: Mrs. C.H. Morris

Capo: 2nd fret

Verse One:
The (G)fight (Gdim)is (G)on,
The trumpet sound is ringing out;
The (D)cry, "(A7)To (D)arms!"
Is (A)heard afar and (D)near;
The (G)Lord (B)of (Em)Hosts
Is (C)marching on to victory;
The (G)tri(Gdim)umph (G)of
The (D7)Christ will soon appear.

Chorus:
The fight is (G)on, O Christian soldier,
And face to face in stern ar(D7)ray,
With armor gleaming and colors streaming,
The right and wrong engage to(G)day! (D)
The fight is (G)on, but be not weary;
Be strong, and in His (G7)might hold (C)fast;
If God be (C#dim)for us, His banner (G)o'er us, (E7)
We'll sing the (Am)victor's (D7)song at (G)last!

Verse Two:
The (G)fight (Gdim)is (G)on,
Arouse, ye soldiers, brave and true!
Je(D)ho(A7)vah leads,
And (A)victory will as(D)sure!
Go, (G)buc(B)kle (Em)on
The (C)armor God has given you,
And (G)in (Gdim)His (G)strength,
Un(D7)to the End en(G)dure!

[Repeat Chorus]

Verse Three:
The (G)Lord (Gdim)is (G)leading
On to certain victory;
The (D)bow (A7)of (D)promise
(A)Spans the eastern (D)sky.
His (G)glori(B)ous (Em)Name
In (C)every land shall honored be;
The (G)morn (Gdim)will (G)break,
The (D7)dawn of peace is (G)nigh.

[Repeat Chorus]
