From the darkness of the night, Into morning's golden light, We are going on, With the aid of art and ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science, With no heed of hate's defiance, Truth and Right our sole reliance, We are going on, Till the hills and valleys ring With the watchword that we bring, With the chorus that we sing— Going on, going on.

With Love's battle flags unfurled, With hope's cause before the world, We are going on, Though the storm-clouds thunder o'er us, Though the path seems dark before us, Though the foeman strive to awe us, We are going on, For our MasterEditorial Note: Jesus Christ led the way, Fought the fight, and won the day! Follow, follow, all who may, Going on, going on.
