Lyrics
Onward, Christian soldiers Marching as to war With the cross of Jesus Going on before
Onward, Christian soldiers Marching as to war With the cross of Jesus Stashed behind the door
What should we do? (The world is hard) What should we do? (The world is hard) What should we do? (The world is hard)
The hand that holds the sword Is militia for a nation What should we do? The world is hard
And we said, what should we do? (The world is hard) What should we do? (The world is hard) We said, what should we do? The world is hard The world is hard The world is hard
Militia for a nation Is the army in the field Or ready for the peel Upon occasion
An army is a beast With the belly for a feast And the army must be fed Before it will be led To a pasture to Hell
And what pastures you have will come To the balance of property And the public sword If it is not just a word
Will be the balance of property The balance of property Be the balance of property
What should we do? The world is hard We said, what should we do? The world is hard What should we do? The world is hard
Without a sword Law is nothing but a word And without our hand A cold iron band
Not even dog Or a little spit frog Spit frog Spit frog Spit frog Spit frog

[This song] is about a villain-hero—maybe should be "hero-villain"... I'm not sure. Depends on what you think of civil war, I guess. "The Duke of New Castle." Take yourselves back to 1649. Cromwell has defeated King Charles. They cut off his head. And now the army needs to be fed. And they say [inaudible].
