Lyrics
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!

Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
His truth is marching on!
In the style of ā€œBattle Hymn of the Republicā€ by Julia Ward Howe (1862), tune "John Brown's Body"
