verse 1
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.

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

verse 2
He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat,
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment seat;
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him; be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.

verse 3
He is coming like the glory of the morning on the wave,
He is wisdom to the mighty, He is honor to the brave;
As He died to make men holy, let us live to make men free;
While God is marching on.

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