[Intro - slowly]
(His[Am] truth is[D4] mar[D] -ching[G] on)


[VERSE 1]
[G] [G] glissando
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
[C] [G] [D7] glissando
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
[G] [G/B] [B7] [Em] glissando
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible, swift sword;
His [Am]truth is [D4]mar-[D]ching [G]on.


[CHORUS]
[G]Glory! [G/B]Glory! halle-lu- jah! [C]Glory! [C/A]Glory! hallel[G]u-j[G7]ah!
[G]Glory! [G/B]Glory! halle[B7/D#] - lu - [Em]jah! His [Am]truth is [D4]mar-[D]ching [G]on.

[Verse 2 - a capella duet]
N.C.
In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
N.C.
With a glory in His bosom that trans-figures you and me;
N.C.
As He died to make men holy, let us live to make men free,
While [Am]God is [D4]mar-[D]ching [G]on.

[VERSE 3]
I hav[G]e seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling [G/B]camps,
They have [C]builded Him an altar in the [G]evening dews and [D7]damps;
I can [G]read His righteous sentence by the [G/B]dim and flaring lamps:
His [C]day is [D4]marching [G]on.

[CHORUS]
[G]Glory! [G/B]Glory! halle-lu- jah! [C]Glory! [C/A]Glory! hallel[G]u-j[G7]ah!
[G]Glory! [G/B]Glory! halle[B7/D#] - lu - [Em]jah! His [Am]truth is [D4]mar-[D]ching [G]on.
