Stand up! stand up for Jesus!
|
|
| 1. | Stand up! stand up for Jesus! |
| | Ye soldiers of the cross; |
| | Lift high His royal banner, |
| | It must not suffer loss: |
| | >From vict'ry unto vict'ry |
| | His army shall He lead, |
| | Till every foe is vanquished |
| | And Christ is Lord indeed. |
| | Stand up for Jesus |
| | Ye soldiers of the cross; |
| | Lift high His royal banner, |
| | It must not, it must not suffer loss. |
| 2. | Stand up! stand up for Jesus! |
| | The trumpet call obey; |
| | Forth to the mighty conflict |
| | In this His glorious day. |
| | Ye that are men, now serve Him |
| | Against unnumbered foes; |
| | Let courage rise with danger, |
| | And strength to strength oppose. |
| 3. | Stand up! stand up for Jesus! |
| | Stand in His strength alone; |
| | The arm of flesh will fail you; |
| | Ye dare not trust your own. |
| | Put on the Gospel armor, |
| | And, watching unto prayer, |
| | Where duty calls, or danger, |
| | Be never wanting there. |
| 4. | Stand up! stand up for Jesus! |
| | The strife will not be long: |
| | This day the noise of battle, |
| | The next the victor's song; |
| | To him that overcometh |
| | A crown of life shall be; |
| | He, with the King of glory, |
| | Shall reign eternally. |
