(Sung as a hymn)
Onward Christian Soldiers!
Marching off to War.
With the Cross of Jesus,
Carried in the fore.
Christ as Your Field Marshal,
Leads against the foe.
Slaughter now the Heathens,
Everywhere you go.
William's Whimsical Words:
I just don't get it; in my copy of the New Testament, Jesus is about peace and love.
