“HOLD THE FORT.”

One of the most popular songs sung in the revival meetings of Messrs Moody and Sankey.
Ho! my comrades, see the signal, Waving in the sky; Reinforcements now appearing, Victory is nigh.
CHORUS. Hold the fort, for I am coming, Jesus signals still; Wave the answer back to Heaven, By Thy grace, we will.
See the mighty host advancing, Satan leading on; Mighty men around us falling, Courage almost gone.
CHORUS.
See the glorious banner waving, Hear the bugle blow; In our Leader’s name we’ll triumph Over every foe.
CHORUS.
Fierce and long the battle rages But our help is near; Onward comes our great Commander, Cheer, my comrades, cheer.
CHORUS. —Sel.
