Text: | Soldiers of Christ, arise |
Author: | Rev. Charles Wesley |
Tune: | SOLDIERS OF CHRIST |
Composer: | Rev. William P. Merrill |
1 Soldiers of Christ, arise,
And put your armor on,
Strong in the strength which God supplies
Through His eternal Son.
2 Strong in the Lord of Hosts,
And in His mighty power,
Who in the strength of Jesus trusts
Is more than conqueror.
3 Stand then in His great might,
With all His strength endued;
But take, to arm you for the fight,
The panoply of God.
4 Leave no unguarded place,
No weakness of the soul;
Take every virtue, every grace,
And fortify the whole.
5 From strength to strength go on;
Wrestle and fight and pray;
Tread all the powers of darkness down,
And win the well-fought day.
Amen.
