I did a full revision and paid closer attention to the meter (as suggested in the feedback comments). I have attached the original to compare the differences. Thanks again to all those that replied.
The sound of screams defines what they call right.
Their voices raise up in passionate song.
So, lift your arms and join us in the fight.
The masses stand, an awesome mighty sight.
If all are right, then all souls must be wrong.
The sound of screams defines what they call right.
The army troops display their strength and might.
The marching lines are drawn and standing strong.
So, lift your arms and join us in the fight.
They chant and march throughout the night til light.
As rushing rivers flowing fast and strong.
The sound of screams defines what they call right.
For all the clamor cannot dim the light.
The rising sides will clash with all that's wrong.
So, lift your arms and join us in the fight.
Or, will you stay in silence here tonight?
Or will you walk the jagged path laid long?

Move within,
