1. Oh! My comrades see the signal waving in the sky,

Re-inforcement 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

2. See the mighty host advancing, Satan leading on,

Mighty men around us falling courage almost gone.

3. See the gloriouÅŸ banner waving. Hear the trumpet blow,

In our leaders name we triumph, over every foe.

4. Fierce and long the battle rages

But our help is near

Onward comes our great commander

Cheer my comrades cheer.
