Verse 1
Hark on the highway of life a sound;
As crested waves of ocean roar,
Lashed by the storm in its fury spent
As they beat upon, the shore.

Chorus
Hear the tramp, tramp, tramp of the Army
As they march along the way of life,
They are weary of the toil and the travel
Of the bitterness of strife,

But they hope and trust, looking ever
On the path the saints before have trod,
And as they march along their faith grows strong
In the church of the Living God.

Verse 2
Onward they march with a faith unmoved,
By any change of time or creed,
There's to believe that the word of God
Can supply the world's great need.

Chorus
Hear the tramp, tramp, tramp of the Army
As they march along the way of life,
They are weary of the toil and the travel
Of the bitterness of strife,

But they hope and trust, looking ever
On the path the saints before have trod,
And as they march along their faith grows strong
In the church of the Living God

Verse 3
Step in the ranks, you are needed there,
Cling to the church and God will bless,
He is the hope of the whole wide world,
For the cause of righteousness.

Chorus
Hear the tramp, tramp, tramp of the Army
As they march along the way of life,
They are weary of the toil and the travel
Of the bitterness of strife,

But they hope and trust, looking ever
On the path the saints before have trod,
And as they march along their faith grows strong
In the church of the Living God
