Hold The Fort Lyrics & Chords

By Philip P. Bliss

(A)Ho, my comrades, (D)see the signal, (A)waving in the (E)sky!

(A)Reinforcements (D)now appearing, (E)victory is (A)nigh.



Chorus

(A)“Hold the fort, for I am coming,” (D)Jesus signals (E)still;

(A)Wave the answer (D)back to Heaven, (E)“By Thy grace we (A)will.”



See the mighty host advancing, Satan leading on;

Mighty ones around us falling, courage almost gone!



Chorus

“Hold the fort, for I am coming,” Jesus signals still;

Wave the answer back to Heaven, “By Thy grace we will.”



See the glorious banner waving! Hear the trumpet blow!

In our Leader’s Name we triumph over every foe.



Chorus

“Hold the fort, for I am coming,” Jesus signals still;

Wave the answer back to Heaven, “By Thy grace we will.”



Fierce and long the battle rages, but our help is near;

Onward comes our great Commander, cheer, my comrades, cheer!
