Hymn 237
STAND UP FOR JESUS
Verse 1
Stand up! Stand up for Jesus!
Ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high his royal banner,
It must not suffer loss:
From victory unto victory,
His army shall he lead,
Till every foe is vanquished,
And Christ is Lord indeed.
Ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high his royal banner,
It must not suffer loss:
From victory unto victory,
His army shall he lead,
Till every foe is vanquished,
And Christ is Lord indeed.
Verse 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.
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.
Verse 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.
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.
Verse 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.
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.
